IDEAS: The new home of big data research and solutions
Recognizing the importance of big data and high-performance computing, Georgia Tech led the development of the new Coda complex, a 21-story building with an 80,000 square foot data center. IDEaS is an anchor tenant of the new building, built in Georgia Tech’s Technology Square in Midtown Atlanta. Coda’s design facilitates collaboration between researchers in various disciplines, which accelerates the transition of the computing industry from its computer-centric roots to its data-centric future. This endeavor entails the restructuring of the modern computing ecosystem centered on the secure and timely acquisition, distillation, storage, modeling, and analysis of data in driving decisions in all sectors of the economy.

AI2 Nexus

George Mason is building a nexus of collaboration and resources on campus, throughout the region with our vast partnerships, and across the state, called AI2Nexus.

As a model for universities, AI2Nexus is based on four key principles: Integrating AI to transform education, research, and operations; Inspiring with AI to advance higher education and learning for the future workforce; Innovating with AI to lead in responsible AI-enabled discovery and advancements across disciplines; and Impacting with AI to drive partnerships and community engagement for societal adoption and change.

George Mason University is driving rapid AI adoption and advancements across the Commonwealth.

As the largest and most diverse university in Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C., George Mason University is leading the future of inclusive artificial intelligence (AI) and developing responsible models for AI research, education, workforce development, and community engagement within a modern university.

As AI reshapes industries, George Mason combines fearless ideas that harness the technology’s boundless potential to address the world’s grand challenges, while creating guardrails based on informed, transdisciplinary research around ethical governance, regulatory oversight, and social impact.

Led by the university’s inaugural vice president and chief artificial intelligence officer (CAIO) Amarda Shehu with an AI Visioning Task Force, George Mason is reimagining operational excellence in every facet of the university.
