HOWARD UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING AND ARCHITECTURE RECEIVES $5M GIFT
This unrestricted gift will support student preparation for an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered workforce by providing funding for a new state-ofthe-art Design and Make Lab. Autodesk and the historically Black college and university (HBCU) are dedicated to promoting equal opportunities for hands-on software training in design and manufacturing. Access to these educational resources is becoming vital as AI and digital transformation change the skills needed in the design and manufacturing
industries. Currently, 41 percent of professionals consider the ability to work with AI as the top technical skill they will be hiring for over the next three years. Providing students with hands-on technology training is essential to ensuring early success in their careers.
