Project Goals

The goal of the project was to strategically integrate GenAI to enhance student proficiency in analytics, decision-making, and data communication.

Project Activities

Students in MGT 2250 were taught to harness AI as an analytical partner, building personalized GPT agents and using them alongside Excel to tackle real-world business problems. The Navigating AI in Research in Higher Education Symposium featured speakers who shared their innovative applications of AI in higher education. 

Artifacts created: 

  • A set of weekly homework assignments on advanced business topics that compared Excel and ChatGPT  
  • Asynchronous assignments solving specific business problems 
  • Canvas Handouts and Videos   
  • Case: EcoDrive Auto, AI Mini-Capstone Project  
  • Introduction to ChatGPT lecture  
  • Guest lecture from Pricewaterhowse Coopers about use of GenAI in their context  
  • Gen AI essay about steps for data visualization   

Student Impact

255 students took MGT 2250.

“I can see AI helping to shape the future of education by offering instructions and making lessons easier to understand for students struggling. I can see it offering examples and creating practice problems for students to utilize when studying, helping for a deeper education and understanding than what might normally be able to be given out.”
