Navigating AI in Higher Education Policy offers a timely and authoritative exploration of how AI is transforming the landscape of higher education policy worldwide. Bringing together scholars and practitioners with expertise in higher education and AI, this volume examines the urgent challenges and opportunities posed by AI, from institutional governance and academic integrity to equity, ethics, and global justice.

Through international case studies and innovative conceptual frameworks, including the Tripartite AI Competency Model and the Ethical-Intelligence Quotient, each chapter provides practical guidance for policymakers, educators, and researchers seeking to shape responsible, inclusive, and future-ready AI strategies.

Essential reading for anyone navigating the complexities of AI-driven change in higher education, this volume bridges the gap between fragmented policy responses and the need for coherent, justice-oriented frameworks that safeguard academic values and promote transformative innovation.
