Engineering
Club
A student club where you train, fine tune and ship your own language models on real GPUs, then play against them. Every major is welcome and you do not need any AI background to start.
All majors welcome. No AI background needed.
Engineering, CS, business, arts, anything. If you can run a notebook cell you can train a model with us, and if you cannot yet, that is what the first meeting is for.
Events
Meetings and workshops are in Devon Energy Hall. RSVP on OU Engage so we know how many people to feed.
Upcoming
General meetingFall kickoff: AI news, what we do, officer hiring
A short AI news roundup, what the club does this semester, a preview of the Codenames workshop, and how to join the officer team.
WorkshopOperation Codenames: train a small language model to play Codenames
Build a dataset from scratch, fine tune Gemma 4 with Unsloth on a free Colab GPU, evaluate it, then play against the model you trained.
What we do
Hands on workshops
Build datasets, fine tune open models on real GPUs, evaluate them, ship something you can play with. The first series trains a small model to play Codenames.
Study sessions + AI news
Weekly co working with a thirty minute roundup of what actually happened in AI, without the hype. Free food, laptops open.
Live coding
One member drives, everyone builds. Real code, real bugs, real fixes, no slides.
Invited talks
Researchers and professors on self driving, security, and training language models. Short, technical, followed by questions.
Play the model
Three mini games played live by a four billion parameter model running in our lab, with its reasoning printed on screen before every move. Most visitors win at least one.
Become an officer
The club is official and we are building its first officer team: vice president, treasurer, secretary, events, workshops, design, outreach. Pick what interests you.
Arash Ahmadi · President
Founded the club. ECE PhD student at OU researching how language models learn to reason. Runs the club out of the INQUIRE Lab, which is also where the GPUs live.
Sara Aminpour · Vice President
ECE PhD candidate at OU researching quantum machine learning, and a researcher in the INQUIRE Lab.
Welcome back party
Our booth at the fall 2026 Welcome Back Party in Devon Energy Hall: a live sticker maker driven by a language model, the tri fold, and a lot of new members.
