Theme Practical Applications of AI in Student Services and the Psychological and Social Implications for Students

As artificial intelligence (AI) continues to transform the landscape of higher education, ISA 2025 brings together student affairs professionals to examine how AI is being integrated into student services, with a critical eye on its psychological, social, and ethical implications.

This two-day event, hosted by leading institutions in Hong Kong, offers a platform to explore the future of student support through keynote sharing, case studies, and institutional visits. The programme provides space not only for showcasing innovative AI applications but also for reflecting on how these technologies influence student well-being, identity, and the delicate balance between digital efficiency and meaningful human connection in an increasingly digital learning environment.
