Professional Doctorate in Applied Artificial Intelligence
17:00 to 18:00
Online
📅 Date: Friday, May 12th, 2026
⏰ Time: 17h00 CET
📍OPIT Webinar
🎤 Speakers: Catalina Dumitru

Ready to move beyond implementing AI and start shaping how it's applied?

If you've got a Master's or years of real industry experience, this might be exactly what you need next. Catalina Dumitru and Greta Maiocchi are walking through OPIT's Professional Doctorate in Applied AI: a program designed for people like you who are serious about operating at the highest level.

It's 3 or 6 years, fully online, and built around your life (you can work full-time while you do it). You'll do coursework, work on actual applied research with mentors, and finish with a capstone project that matters. The program combines academic rigor with applied, practice-driven research focused on real-world challenges. When you graduate, you will be equipped to take on more strategic and leadership-oriented roles in AI-driven environments.

Entry requirements include a Master's degree in a STEM field, or more than 5 years of professional experience in an area where AI has a significant impact.

Who should tune in? If you've been thinking about what's next in your AI career. If you're wondering whether a doctorate actually makes sense for you. If you want to understand what it takes to lead AI, not just execute it.

What you'll get: Real insight into the program, whether it's the right fit, and what the next steps look like.
