Improving Operations With AI: Case Studies

ChroniclePage (1)_Jenzabar_AIOps_VF.png

Higher ed has always been a place of critical thinking — an environment where students are taught to question everything and to accept nothing without proof. It should come as little surprise, then, that higher-ed faculty are struggling with AI adoption.

“Higher education has a tough job ahead,” writes The Chronicle’s Taylor Swaak. “Waiting for this moment to pass is not an option.”

Skepticism around AI, a lack of structure around its implementation, and misconceptions around the technology are making it difficult to incorporate AI in higher ed. This doesn’t have to be the case.

The Chronicle invites you to a new virtual forum, “Improving Operations With AI: Case Studies,” to hear from a panel of administrators as they discuss:

  • Safe-use cases of AI in higher ed.
  • Real-world examples of AI, from admissions to career services.
  • Roles that human insight plays in AI use.
  • Tips on deploying AI on campus in 2025.

On a virtual forum held on Tuesday, March 11, at 2 p.m. ET, panelists discussed how you can start streamlining operations and do more with the team you have.

With support from the Jenzabar.

Host: Ian Wilhelm, deputy managing editor, The Chronicle of Higher Education
