The AI-Ready University

Turning AI Ambition into Institutional Action

As artificial intelligence moves from experimentation to institution-wide adoption, university leaders face a new challenge: building the governance, infrastructure, skills and culture needed to use AI responsibly and at scale.

Grounded in the QS AI Capability Framework and supported by Google, this four-part series brings together QS experts, Google leaders and US university perspectives. Each session explores a critical area of institutional readiness: governance, campus operations, teaching and learning, and research.

Designed for leaders shaping strategy, policy and innovation, the series offers practical insight into moving beyond isolated AI initiatives toward coordinated, institution-wide capability.
