Teaching AI-Focused Leadership in Higher Education Programs

Teaching AI-Focused Leadership in Higher Education Programs explores how graduate higher education leadership programs can prepare future academic administrators to lead in an era of artificial intelligence. The teaching document presents an eight-week graduate seminar that examines institutional governance, policy development, resource allocation, ethics, academic integrity, and accountability related to AI adoption in colleges and universities. Rather than focusing on AI tools alone, the course places higher education leadership at the center of analysis, emphasizing evidence-based decision-making and institutional responsibility. This resource may be useful for faculty, researchers, doctoral students, and academic leaders interested in AI governance and leadership education in higher education.
