WASHINGTON (December 4, 2025) – New reporting indicates growing interest in artificial intelligence majors, with universities quickly creating new AI departments and programs to meet the demand.
Şevin Yeltekin, Dean of the George Washington University School of Business and a professor of finance, is available to discuss what’s driving this trend, how AI is reshaping higher education, and how universities can prepare students for a changing career landscape.
“The surge in AI majors shows that students want an education that blends technical fluency and human-centered decision making. At GW, we’re always thinking of ways to bridge AI with fields like finance, policy, health, and social sciences to prepare future leaders to navigate, and shape, a career landscape heavily influenced by AI.”
