Undergraduate Business Curricula and AI in the Workplace

Abstract

As AI adoption accelerates in organizations and business operations, it is important that higher education continue to study its impact on teaching and learning. Following the formal introduction of two AI applications at a 23-campus university system, this work-in-progress research aimed to understand business faculty pedagogic response to AI and employer needs at one institution. Given that curricula design involves multifactorial thinking, this report is part of a larger study involving a sequenced set of data analyses. On the higher education side, for this study, current syllabi of courses in the General Management concentration in the undergraduate business program were analyzed. General Management was the most popular business concentration last year. As the technology continues to evolve, any study provides only a snapshot in time. Given higher education’s role in the economic sector, at this transformative juncture, modernizing academic understanding of the workplace needs to examine pedagogical practice relating to graduate preparation for new opportunities and challenges.
