Kansas City’s research university is known for being innovative and future-forward. 随着人工智能融入我们的日常生活，许多教师在课堂上和各自的领域使用这项技术一直处于领先地位。 Here’s what professors campuswide are doing to keep up with AI.
科学与工程学院
陈志强博士是美国土木工程师学会（American Society of Civil Engineers）新成立的一个国家委员会的创始主席之一，该委员会致力于研究课堂上的人工智能。 该委员会正在努力回答将生成式人工智能应用于土木工程教室的全球迫切需求。
In Fall 2023, he developed the first civil engineering AI course offered at 威尼斯人娱乐城 titled “Intro to AI for Natural and Built Environment Applications.”
医学院
Sara Gardner (B.L.A. ’01, M.D. ‘02) is looking at how to incorporate appropriate use of AI in patient care and education.
“Clinically, as our faculty and institutions have adapted and learned more, we understand the utility of AI to recognize small, incremental changes in our patients that could lead to better treatment strategies that ultimately improve patient outcomes,” Gardner said. “Our graduates will likely encounter this technology very early in their post-graduate training, so we are looking for opportunities for them to be exposed to, and learn to respond to, this data on clinical clerkships. Our students also need to understand and become adept at querying these databases, whether that is generating clinical documentation to a complex interpretation of test results specific to the personal characteristics of your patient, to better understand how to interpret these results for their individual patients.”
护理与健康研究学院
Jim Spence (B.A. ’95, M.P.A. ’02, B.S.N. ‘09) interim associate dean for academic affairs, has presented at nursing conferences on AI in nursing education.
斯宾塞还鼓励教师和学生在课堂上使用人工智能，无论是开发测试问题还是患者案例研究。 For patient case studies, AI is able to generate details of the patient’s social history such as name, gender, age, occupation and physical history from lab tests such as neurological assessments and cardiac testing.
人文社会科学学院
Antonio Byrd, Ph.D., serves on the Modern Language Association and Conference on College Composition and Communication Joint Task on Artificial Intelligence and Writing, a 国家工作队 that discusses humanities interventions in AI and higher education. 其中一个例子是为人工智能政策制定指导方针，以尊重学生的语言多样性和自主性。
教育、社会工作与心理科学学院
临时副院长兼心理学教授Jake Marszalek博士正在研究将人工智能用于学习和教育的潜在结果。
Marszalek是“一致人工智能”（Unanimous AI）一项多学科资助项目的联合研究员，该项目旨在调查一款软件的教育成果，该软件能够在保护数据隐私和安全的同时实现点对点协作。
亨利w布洛赫管理学院
Larry Wigger, Ph.D., is currently exploring humanity’s role in increasingly automated workplaces due to AI. With AI automation threatening to displace the lowest-skilled workers, given their predominantly routine tasks, tomorrow’s workforce needs a better way to gain the critical experience to manage and lead. Wigger’s research focuses on how future workers should be equipped with critical thinking skills to employ AI ethically, minimizing negative effects.
法学院
法学院教授Ryan Copus法学博士鼓励学生在写论文、探索想法或完成任何其他作业时使用大型语言模型。 Copus teaches a course titled “Data, Decisions and Justice,” where he introduces the idea of technically and ethically responsible ways to apply the power of AI to regulate legal decision-making. 在本课程中，学生将编写代码并构建自己的机器学习模型，并参与人工智能研究文献。
