A timely workshop will explore how the principles of Jesuit education intersect with the demands of a workplace increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence. The event, scheduled for Thursday, February 12th, will provide a forum for educators and students to consider the evolving professional landscape.
The session aims to address a critical question: what skills and competencies are employers now seeking as automation and generative AI become more prevalent? The conversation will focus on moving beyond technical proficiency alone. It will delve into how a values-based, liberal arts education fosters the uniquely human attributes—such as ethical reasoning, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving—that are essential for career resilience and leadership.
Participants will discuss practical strategies for integrating these enduring educational goals with an awareness of new technologies. The goal is to ensure graduates are not only adaptable to technological change but are also prepared to use these tools with discernment and a commitment to the common good, thereby translating their comprehensive education into meaningful professional success.
