MOD.01 // INDEX.SYS — STANDBY

Global AI Education Readiness Index

The first ranking of how ready the world's universities are for the AI era. Not prestige, not research output — readiness: can the institution teach, govern and provision AI for every student?

DIMENSIONS // 03

What it will measure

Three dimensions, published as separate sub-scores before any composite:

DIM.01 // MEASURABLE_NOW

Policy readiness

Does the institution publish clear, findable AI guidance — for students, for teaching staff, for research? Scored from our open audit data: existence, clarity, scope and recency of official policy. This is the dimension we can already measure.

DIM.02 // IN_PROGRESS

Teaching integration

Is AI part of pedagogy, or just a policy PDF? Evidence from course catalogs, AI-named programs, faculty development offerings and — eventually — our Global AI Learning Survey of how students actually use these tools.

DIM.03 // QUEUED

Infrastructure & access

Compute, licensed tools, training and support available to students and faculty — and whether access is equitable or concentrated in a few flagship programs.

RANKING_RULES // STATED_BEFORE_LAUNCHThe full methodology — weights, sources, and scoring rubrics — will be published before the first edition, and the underlying data stays open in the Data Commons. Any university will be able to reproduce its own score. A ranking you cannot audit is marketing; we are not in the marketing business.

FIRST_EDITION

First edition

The inaugural index will rank 300+ universities, building on our 187-university policy audit and the U.S. R1 census now in progress. Policy readiness leads; teaching integration and infrastructure follow as the survey data lands.
