The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Education

What will be the role of Artificial Intelligence in education and research? How can it be integrated into the educational process?

A thought-provoking debate is being proposed by “Aurel Vlaicu” University of Arad, together with the Institute for Geopolitical Studies and the Research Centre for Mathematical Models and Computer Systems within UAV, addressing those interested in how artificial intelligence can be integrated into scientific and educational processes.

The conference, titled “The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Scientific and Educational Processes – Perspectives for the Future,” will take place on November 20, in the Festive Hall of the M Complex (2 Elena Drăgoi Street).

“Artificial intelligence is no longer just a research topic—it is a reality that is redefining the way we learn, teach, and innovate. ‘Aurel Vlaicu’ University of Arad embraces its role in opening a dialogue about the impact and responsibility the academic world bears in the face of this transformation.

Through this conference, we aim to provide a space for reflection and collaboration among university faculty, pre-university teachers, researchers, and students, to identify the most ethical and effective ways to integrate artificial intelligence into education and research.

It is an opportunity to learn from international experts and to position our university at the center of a global conversation about the future of knowledge,” said Assoc. Prof. Teodor Florin Cilan, PhD, Rector of “Aurel Vlaicu” University of Arad.

The conference will feature two distinguished guests, renowned for their scientific contributions in the field of artificial intelligence:

• Prof. Mitja Jermol, from the Jožef Stefan Institute (Slovenia), holder of the UNESCO Chair on Open Technologies for Open Educational Resources, who will deliver a keynote address on the role of open technologies and artificial intelligence in higher education.

• Prof. Valeriu Beiu, from “Aurel Vlaicu” University of Arad, an expert in research on biologically inspired computing architectures and the design of computing infrastructures for AI.

Admission is free.
