Abstract

The incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into civil engineering education represents a swiftly advancing and essential domain, driven by the profound impact of AI on the civil engineering industry and the training of future civil engineers. This extensive discourse will examine the need, advantages, obstacles/challenges, and optimal strategies for integrating AI into civil engineering programs, while also considering forthcoming trends. Additionally, this paper presents a suggested framework for an AI-enhanced civil engineering education curriculum for both undergraduate and graduate programs.
