Artificial Intelligence for Agriculture Technology and Climate Change

'AI for Agriculture Technology and Climate Change' is an online course developed by the Department of Continuing Education of Oxford University. The course aims at professionals in the sectors of agriculture, agtech, sustainability/climate change and food value chain, who aspire to be pioneers in the application of AI in their domains.

The main objective of this online course is to teach how to apply AI techniques to specific problems in agriculture and climate change and explore the wider impact of these technologies in the food value chain. Students will have the unique opportunity to gain a clear understanding of applying AI to complex, interdisciplinary problems based on data.
