IBM and CHRIST University Partner on AI Research and Education

The CHRIST University in India has partnered with IBM to launch an Innovation Center for Artificial Intelligence. The center will provide students, faculty members, and researchers with access to enterprise-grade AI technologies and real-world use cases.

The initiative will support learning and experimentation in areas such as generative AI, agentic AI, large language models (LLMs), retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), intelligent automation, and responsible AI. Participants will have access to IBM's technologies, including Watsonx.ai, an AI development studio; Watsonx Orchestrate, an agentic control plane for scaling and governing AI; and IBM Bob, an AI development partner.

The center will also provide hands-on training and enablement programs for faculty members, PhD scholars, and postgraduate students. This is part of a broader effort to strengthen India's AI talent pipeline and accelerate research and innovation in the field.
