Saras AI Institute introduces world’s first AI degree programs in Utah for next-gen workforce

Saras AI Institute, an online education provider, has launched the world’s first AI-focused associate and bachelor’s degree programs, designed to provide a comprehensive education for students pursuing careers in the rapidly expanding field of artificial intelligence.

The programs, now available in Utah, mark a shift from typical short-term AI certificates, providing structured degree programs accessible online for working professionals and current students.

The curriculum at Saras AI Institute has been developed in collaboration with leading AI industry partners and practitioners, giving students hands-on experience through capstone projects and internships that focus on ethical and practical AI applications.

“Utah’s thriving tech ecosystem makes it the perfect launchpad for our innovative AI education model,” said Anil Singh, founder and president of Saras AI Institute. “Our programs go beyond traditional tech education, offering a transformative experience that prepares students for immediate impact in the AI industry with high-paying salaries.”

The AI programs provide flexibility through an online platform, accommodating students balancing work and family responsibilities. Saras AI aims to set a new standard in education by focusing on the comprehensive development of AI professionals.

Tomas Pfister, Head of AI Research at Google Cloud and an advisory board member for Saras, emphasised the importance of the institute’s unique approach: “Saras AI Institute nurtures future AI leaders with the real-world skills needed to solve meaningful problems and improve lives. The future requires students who are not only highly skilled but also capable of thinking beyond traditional limits, while applying ethical AI practices across organisations of every size.”

Beyond its curriculum, Saras adopts a “One World, One Family” philosophy to foster an inclusive, globally connected community. Success coaches are available to help students navigate their academic and career paths, ensuring students receive guidance from their initial enrolment to securing roles in the AI industry. The institute also offers scholarships and financial aid to make AI education more accessible.

Saras AI Institute has already welcomed its first cohort through its international programs and continues to grow.

“We believe every student is a leader and has the potential to change the world,” Singh added. “Our vision is to be the most student-centric educational institution on the planet, nurturing future AI leaders who are ready to make a positive impact.”
