Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the face of higher education, and there are important issues regarding the future of the faculty (Stoerger, 2024). Although there are concerns about the impact of AI on the conventional faculty roles in teaching, assessment, and administration, these tools are now being adopted in learning processes. Rather than dismissing AI as a threat, it acts as a catalyst for reshaping the way faculty members teach with the help of AI and, hence, become facilitators of the learning process (Haoyang & Towne, 2025).
This paper aims to discuss the integration of AI in the higher education environment and the impact on faculty roles, the opportunities for improved teaching and learning, and the ethical implications of AI in education. Furthermore, it identifies the skills and professional development that faculty need to be able to work in AI-rich higher education environments. Thus, AI should not be seen as a threat but as an enabler that can help educators enhance their practice, tailor learning to the needs of individual students, and navigate the future of higher education.
