As the fifth president of MSOE, Dr. John Y. Walz has been busy leading a university-wide strategic planning process while helping drive MSOE to the educational forefront of artificial Intelligence. With specialists in artificial intelligence in short supply but in greater demand by employers, MSOE was one of the first in the country to enter this space, joined only by top-tier universities like Carnegie Mellon. Walz will provide an update on MSOE’s plans for the future, its national leadership in this exciting new frontier, and its potential as a catalyst for growing Milwaukee and the Midwest’s technology and innovation culture.
