MICDE State of AI & the Future of Institutions is a two-hour strategic conversation convened by the Michigan Institute for Computational Discovery and Engineering (MICDE). As AI rapidly reshapes research, education, governance, and industry, institutions face choices that will define their relevance for decades. This forum brings together faculty members and institutional leaders to examine where AI truly stands today and discuss how U-M must evolve to remain credible, competitive, and mission-driven in an AI-native era.
