Abstract

A fundamental shift in business education has been sparked by the quick development of artificial intelligence technology, which is especially impacting Master of Business Administration (MBA) programs around the globe. This study looks at how AI is changing the design of MBA programs and how business professionals' career paths are changing. This study investigates AI Integration, Evaluating Career Shifts, Comparing Traditional vs. AI-enhanced Education, Investigating Industry Adoption, Predicting Future Trends. How integrating AI necessitates new pedagogical approaches, competency frameworks, and educational techniques through a methodical review of recent literature and practical data. The results show that extensive curriculum reform, faculty development, industry engagement, and ethical governance frameworks are necessary for the successful incorporation of AI in MBA programs. This change not only improves the quality of education but also equips graduates for careers driven by AI in a business environment that is becoming more and more digital.
