Google Higher Ed Faculty AI Fellowship 2026

The Google Higher Ed Faculty AI Fellowship is a program designed for university faculty who are integrating artificial intelligence into teaching, research, and institutional innovation. Fellows join a global community of academic leaders working to advance responsible AI and improve student outcomes across higher education.

The Fellow is positioned to shape the future of responsible AI through strategic leadership and institutional transformation and may act as an ambassador guiding peers and the academic community through the evolving landscape of higher education.

The fellowship is intended for higher education faculty who are actively exploring or implementing AI in their teaching, research, or institutional initiatives.

Applicants submit a short 90-second video introducing themselves and their vision for the future of AI in higher education, describing how they are driving AI adoption and their approach to responsible AI.
