New paths with AI

"Together, we want to take new paths. Artificial intelligence is no longer a vision of the future; it is a reality—in research, in teaching, in administration, and in every aspect of university life. The question is no longer whether we will use AI, but how we can do so responsibly, creatively, and for the benefit of all."

Prof. Dr. Karsten Krüger, Vice President for Academic Infrastructure

Artificial intelligence opens up new possibilities for research, teaching, and everyday university life. Justus Liebig University Giessen therefore provides its members with key resources and services related to the use of AI. These include support in integrating AI into teaching and exams, as well as consulting and networking opportunities for data-driven research. Furthermore, learning materials and tutorials on AI use are available, as are continuing education and professional development opportunities for employees. AI tools that comply with data protection regulations and technical services that enable the secure and responsible use of AI technologies are also available. You can find more information on the individual offerings in the sections below.
