Abstract

Artificial intelligence (AI) is currently bringing fundamental changes to both chemical science and the education system. This article examines the impact of artificial intelligence on chemical education, changes in teaching methodologies, the transformation of the roles of students and instructors, and effective approaches to integrating AI into the educational process. Drawing on international research and the experiences of higher education institutions, the article analyzes the future prospects of chemical education and the key challenges associated with implementing AI technologies in teaching. As artificial intelligence becomes an integral part of chemical research, the study highlights the necessity of modernizing educational programs to prepare future professionals for the evolving demands of science and industry.
