AI Proficiency in Higher Ed Institutions

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has long since made its way onto campus – in research, teaching and administration. Whether it be automated exam marking, AI-supported counselling or generative tools in everyday student life: the responsible use of AI has become a key challenge for the future of higher education institutions. This course provides practical knowledge on technical fundamentals, ethical issues and legal frameworks – with a particular focus on the new European AI Act. Interactive elements encourage engagement. The course is aimed at university staff from all disciplines who wish to understand, contextualise and use AI competently. It was developed and is provided as a cross-university self-study programme by MMKH in close collaboration with the participating Hamburg universities. Note: This beta version is under continuous development – content and functions are subject to change.
