About

AI.VT.EDU is Virginia Tech’s central hub for AI tools and services.

This is the place to find official information on Virginia Tech’s AI tools, guidance, training, and support. The site is co-managed by the Division of Information Technology and Technology-enhanced Learning and Online Strategies (TLOS).

Virginia Tech’s approach to AI strategy

In 2024, discussions between Provost Cyril Clarke and Chief Operating Officer Amy Stoakley Sebring resulted in the formation of a 23-member University AI Working Group, charged with developing institutional guidance for responsible use of AI. The group engaged stakeholders across the university and produced the Responsible and Ethical AI Framework in September 2025. That framework includes the seven Responsible and Ethical AI Principles, governance recommendations, implementation guidance, and a policy gap analysis.

In accordance with the report’s recommendations, the IT Governance Executive Committee subsequently established the AI Working Committee, a standing committee with broad representation across the university that provides ongoing recommendations on AI policy, investment priorities, best practices, and risk management.

“As a land-grant research university, Virginia Tech is committed to Ut Prosim—That I May Serve. Artificial intelligence amplifies our ability to teach, discover, and serve the Commonwealth and the world, but only when its adoption reflects our Principles of Community and the public trust those principles embody.”
