Gen AI strategies for research training: Emerging practice
In June 2024, TEQSA issued a request for information to all Australian higher education providers. This request asked for a credible institutional action plan addressing the risk generative artificial intelligence (gen AI) poses to award integrity.
Drawing on the information received, TEQSA has developed 2 resources. The first Gen AI strategies for Australian higher education: Emerging practice was published in November 2024.
Gen AI strategies for research training: Emerging practice is the second resource developed from TEQSA’s analysis of the information received and focuses on research training. This toolkit includes 4 sections:
- Induction, guidance and training
- Research process
- Assessment and thesis examination
- Publications and grant applications.
Each section can be read individually, in any order, or in conjunction with the broader toolkit. It seeks to share ideas and experiences to support institutions in effectively and ethically integrating gen AI into research training, while also managing the risks these evolving technologies pose to academic integrity.
