Title
The future is here! Recognizing the need to revitalize and transform business education via digital integration
Abstract
Business education is undergoing rapid transformations thanks to advancements in emerging technologies. Business school leaders are engaging in identifying approaches to revitalize business education, preparing students to succeed in a technologically advancing workplace. Primarily anchored in the concept of digital transformation, our article provides practical guidance to help business schools integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into their curricula and infrastructure, benefiting students, faculty, administration, and leadership. We offer a roadmap that lays out current industry trends and articulates pertinent action items, related cost efforts, and associated benefits for business education. This article positions business schools to instill a human-AI augmentation mindset in students, faculty, staff, and leadership that prepares them to work with ever-changing technologies. Regularly revising business course curricula to stay aligned with evolving industry needs is key to providing topical content and meaningful skill development opportunities for students. We argue that these efforts directly enhance student employability and learning, better preparing students to succeed in the increasingly technology-enabled workplace. © 2026 Kelley School of Business, Indiana University.
