EDUCAUSE AI's Impact on Work in Higher Ed Survey

Welcome

Welcome to the EDUCAUSE AI's Impact on Work in Higher Ed Survey, conducted in partnership with AIR, NACUBO, and CUPA-HR.

This survey is designed for administrators, staff, and faculty currently working at an institution of higher education. This survey asks questions about recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and how they are impacting higher education business operations and administration. You will be asked about topics such as impacts on work-related strategy, policy, risks and opportunities, and use cases. For the purposes of longitudinal analysis, you might be asked some questions that are identical to those in previous EDUCAUSE surveys. Your responses will help leaders at your institution and others understand the AI-related challenges and opportunities that face higher education. There are no right or wrong answers. We would just like you to answer as honestly as you can.

Participation in the survey is completely voluntary. You can choose to exit the survey at any point. The data resulting from this confidential survey will be made available to researchers at EDUCAUSE, AIR, NACUBO, and CUPA-HR. You cannot be identified by your non-written survey responses. This survey includes several open-ended questions. It is best not to include personally identifiable information in these responses. Data will be available to researchers as individual responses and in aggregate formats. Data will be reported, in aggregate, to the general public in the form of public presentations, reports, journal or newspaper articles, and/or in books. Please research out to EDUCAUSE senior researcher Jenay Robert at jrobert@educause.edu with any questions.

This survey is expected to take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The survey can be completed on a mobile device, but you may have the best survey response experience using a desktop or laptop computer. Please use the survey’s navigation buttons below to go backward or forward within the survey. Using your device or browser’s navigation buttons might result in lost answers.

Please do not use AI-generated responses for the questions in this survey. We want to hear directly from you in your own words!

Please complete this survey by Oct 10, 2025.
