Foreword and Table of Contents

This collection of think pieces brings together diverse perspectives on one of the most pressing challenges facing contemporary higher education: how to preserve integrity, accountability, trust, and human well-being, personal fulfilment and human prosperity, while embracing the transformative potential of artificial intelligence. Rather than viewing AI solely as a technological innovation, the contributors collectively explore its implications for supervision,
scholarly formation, identity, academic integrity, and institutional culture. The think pieces reveal that the explosion of AI is not merely a technological disruption but a catalyst that exposes deeper structural tensions within higher education itself, with significant socioeconomic and environmental implications. Together, these reflections invite educators, supervisors, researchers, and institutional leaders to reconsider what it means to learn, teach, engage in research, supervise, and create knowledge in a rapidly evolving educational
landscape.
