Manipal Academy of Higher Education (MAHE) has partnered with OpenAI to integrate artificial intelligence across its academic and research platforms [1][2]. The collaboration aims to boost research productivity and build critical AI literacy among students and faculty [1]. It specifically targets high-impact disciplines including health sciences, technology, and management [2][3]. Lt. Gen. (Dr.) M D Venkatesh, MAHE’s Vice Chancellor, called the partnership a strategic step for institutional transformation [2]. The university will deploy advanced AI tools to support personalized learning and curriculum planning [2]. Faculty members will also gain access to specialized resources designed to accelerate interdisciplinary innovation [1]. The agreement is part of a larger OpenAI initiative involving elite Indian institutions like IIT Delhi and AIIMS [3]. MAHE plans to establish strict governance guidelines to ensure ethical AI use [2]. These frameworks will promote transparent and responsible deployment across all institutional campuses [1][2].
