Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has highlighted the need to develop regulatory and ethical parameters for its use. In this context, the university needs to position itself as a protagonist and co-responsible for this process. This study describes the process of constructing a Policy for the Use of Artificial Intelligence in a Higher Education Institution (HEI) located in the city of Curitiba, Paraná. This is a combined, applied, and descriptive study, articulating field research and experience reporting, carried out in six stages and involving 79 participants in the data collection phase. The study highlighted the complexity of the topic, involving aspects related to principles, governance, and applications in teaching, research, outreach, and management. The development of the Policy allowed for a deeper understanding of the ethical and responsible use of AI, creating clearer outlines for its application, as well as enabling further reflection on the future of education.
