AI and Higher Education: Opportunities, Challenges and Trends explores the profound transformation artificial intelligence is unleashing across global universities. From redefining teaching, research, and administration to reshaping relationships among students, faculty, staff, and leadership, AI has become a pervasive force and a reality demanding urgent response. This timely and incisive monograph examines AI’s place in historical context, maps regional adoption trends across continents, and critically analyzes how institutions are responding.
