Redefine your work with AI.
Learn to use the new suite of tools offered by ASU to enhance your work and to develop new ideas that align with our core values.
Generative AI is not just a tool.
It is a partner in innovation.
The pace of technological change is reshaping every discipline. Tools like ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, and AI-driven design platforms didn’t exist a few years ago — yet they’re already redefining the nature of work.
- For students
- Preparing them as the “Engineers of 2030,” ready to co-design with AI responsibly.
- For faculty
- Scaling teaching, research, and mentorship while embedding AI in daily practice.
- For staff
- Reducing repetitive tasks to create capacity for higher-value, people-centered work. Develop new skills that align with future roles.
Ready to get started with generative AI?
One of the best ways to get started with adopting AI into your workflow is to learn to use an ASU-developed option called Create AI Chat.
It is the perfect tool to use to experiment with prompt engineering and to quickly create a few small wins to build consistency.
Augmented not artificial.
AI adoption at FSE is guided by our core values and our growing understanding of best practices.
Keep the humans in the loop.
- Human-generated
- You define the task and provide direction.
- AI-augmented
- The tool helps you draft, brainstorm, or analyze.
- Human-validated
- You review, refine and ensure accuracy and alignment with our standards and values.
Guidelines for creating prompts.
- AI is an assistant, not a replacement
- Use it to enhance your work, not replace judgment, context, or expertise.
- Be specific
- The clearer your prompt or question, the better the response you’ll get.
- Check for accuracy
- AI can make mistakes (“hallucinations”), so always verify facts and data with at least two independent sources.
- Keep it secure
- Never enter ASU or sensitive data using a personal AI account. ASU has created a suite of tools that ensure data privacy and security.
- Experiment and learn
- AI tools are best used iteratively. Practice improves results.
- Be a responsible user
- Remember that ASU and the Fulton Schools have an open use policy. The user is always responsible for the output of an AI tool.

AI policy information
Please remember that the AI tools and content are for use by Arizona State University employees. Revisiting the information in the following policies will help ensure you have the latest guidance.
Personal Use of University Resources ASU Financial Policy 117
ASU IT Policy ASU Enterprise Technology IT Policy
Misuse of University Assets ASU Academic Affairs Policy 123
Digital Trust Guidelines ASU Digital Trust guidelines for GenAI
In addition to the above, ACD 125: Computer, Internet and Electronic Commuications Information Management Policy defines the boundaries of acceptable use of ASU computing and communication resources.
Acceptable use in your unit
The Fulton Schools of Engineering currently has an open use policy for AI tools and encourages employees to discuss with their supervisors how the tools might be used in the workplace.
- AI-generated content should be reviewed for accuracy before relying on it for work purposes. If a reliable source cannot be found to verify factual information generated by the tool, that information should not be used for work purposes.
- Because the CreateAI Platform Toolkit, which includes CHAT, BUILDER and COMPARE, is Secure By Design and built in a secure ASU environment, your AI assistants can use university resources and documents while keeping data safe and compliant. It is approved for use with FERPA-protected and non-regulated PII. It is NOT cleared for HIPPA-protected health data.
