Is this the right place?

If any of these match what you're thinking, yes — this is the right place. Pick the closest one (you don't need to be sure).

  • I need advice on an AI idea
  • I want training or a workshop
  • I want to explore a pilot
  • I need help choosing or using an AI tool
  • I have a process or workflow that may benefit from AI
  • I need guidance on privacy, security, data, or responsible use
  • I'm not sure where to start

What we'll need from you

The form will walk you through these. You don't need every answer up front — partial information is fine.

The problem
What you're trying to solve or improve, in plain language.
The users
Who is affected — staff, students, faculty, the public?
The data
What information would the AI touch? Public, Confidential, Restricted, or Highly Restricted?
The outcome
How would you know it worked? Time saved, fewer errors, better experience?
Sponsorship
Is a leader in your unit aware and supportive? (Helpful, not required.)
Timing
Is this exploratory, planned for a specific term, or time-sensitive?

What happens after you submit

  1. 1

    Submit

    Tell us the problem, the users involved, what data is in scope, and the outcome you're hoping for.

  2. 2

    Triage

    We review for fit, urgency, risk, and the kind of help needed.

  3. 3

    Route

    Your request goes to: quick guidance, advisory, training, a pilot, a project pathway, or governance coordination.

  4. 4

    Next step

    A short conversation to nail down scope, then a clear outcome: guidance you can apply, training booked, a pilot sketched out, or the right people connected.

Good to know

  • Not every request becomes a project — sometimes the answer is guidance, training, or a referral.
  • Not every idea requires AI. We'll tell you honestly if a simpler tool would do the job.
  • Higher-risk use cases may need privacy, security, data, procurement, or governance review. We'll help coordinate.
  • Reusable or campus-wide ideas may be added to Campus AI Trends so other teams can benefit.

Expected timelines

Targets, not guarantees — complex requests take longer.
