In this live discussion, panelists explore the transformative impact of generative artificial intelligence on academic immigration offices.  As universities and research institutions increasingly rely on global talent, the need for efficient and effective immigration processes has never been greater.  We will discuss how generative AI technologies are being utilized to automate administrative tasks, improve accuracy in document verification, and enhance communication between applicants and immigration officers.  Additionally, we will examine the ethical considerations and potential challenges associated with generative AI implementation in this sensitive area. Join us to gain insights into how AI is shaping the future of ISSS offices.

NAFSA Peer-to-Peer Perspectives facilitate an online dialogue between international education professionals. Participants come prepared to listen, learn, and share with their peers.
