| contents | <p>This review paper explores the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in reshaping the future of Indian universities. With the global education sector witnessing rapid digitalization, India—owing to its demographic advantage and policy initiatives like NEP 2020—is uniquely positioned to lead in AI-driven higher education. The study critically examines the current landscape of AI adoption in Indian universities, analyzing national strategies, institutional practices, and industry collaborations. It highlights key opportunities such as personalized learning systems, adaptive assessments, AI-enabled research support, and administrative automation that enhance academic productivity and learner engagement. At the same time, the paper identifies pressing challenges including infrastructural deficits, limited faculty AI-literacy, data privacy risks, and policy ambiguity. Through a comprehensive review of 40 scholarly sources, it evaluates the role of policy frameworks, technological access, and pedagogical adaptation in AI implementation. The study emphasizes the need for curriculum reforms, structured faculty development, ethical oversight mechanisms, and inclusive public-private partnerships. It also calls for longitudinal and comparative research to measure AI’s impact across diverse educational settings in India. Concluding with a forward-looking vision, the paper advocates for a balanced, human-centric AI integration model that supports equity, innovation, and institutional resilience. The findings contribute to national and global discourse on responsible AI adoption in higher education and provide actionable insights for academic leaders, policymakers, and researchers.</p> |
