Australian universities are creating AI-native graduates

Australian universities are collaborating with OpenAI to prepare students for an AI-enabled workforce. Institutions including UNSW Sydney, University of Sydney, La Trobe University, and Adelaide University are providing access to frontier AI tools like ChatGPT Edu and integrating AI into curricula and operations. A survey of over 1,000 Australian university students found that 81% use AI several times a week, 28% have built an AI agent, and 79% want more opportunities to use advanced AI on real-world projects. Universities are also developing frameworks for AI use in assessment, such as UNSW's "Can, Can't, Must" framework, and offering practical guidance like La Trobe's responsible AI modules. These efforts aim to help students develop practical skills, sound judgment, and subject knowledge to succeed in an AI-driven workplace.
