Morehouse AI in Action

We highlight the work of colleagues across Morehouse College who are finding practical, meaningful ways to use emerging tools in their teaching, research, and daily work.

Morehouse has received a prestigious grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) to participate in a $457 million project to build one of the most powerful academic supercomputers in the southeast. This historic investment in higher education cyberinfrastructure will elevate Morehouse’s ability to provide unprecedented access to world-class computational resources for its students, faculty, and HBCUs nationwide. The Morehouse Center for Broadening Participation in Computing, led by Executive Director Dr. Kinnis Gosha, has received $5 million of the NSF grant to start construction on a site that will house the cutting-edge supercomputer, Horizon, part of the NSF’s Leadership-Class Computing Facility (LCCF). The supercomputer will push the boundaries of artificial intelligence, providing greater access to areas such as climate modeling, machine learning, and biomedical research.
