AI in Commerce Education : Digital Changes in India's Curriculum

Abstract

The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is significantly transforming the landscape of commerce education in India, prompting a shift from traditional teaching methodologies to digitally enriched, skill-oriented learning environments. This study examines the evolving role of AI in reshaping the commerce curriculum, focusing on its impact on pedagogy, student competencies, and institutional practices. It explores how AI-driven tools such as adaptive learning platforms, automated assessment systems, and data analytics applications are enhancing educational delivery and enabling personalized learning experiences. The research also investigates the integration of interdisciplinary domains, including financial technology, business analytics, and digital marketing, into commerce education to meet contemporary industry demands. Furthermore, the study highlights the challenges associated with AI adoption, including limited faculty readiness, infrastructural disparities, and concerns related to data privacy and ethical usage. By analyzing existing literature and current educational practices, the paper identifies critical gaps in curriculum standardization, practical implementation, and long-term impact assessment. The findings suggest that while AI has the potential to significantly improve learning outcomes and employability, its effective integration requires strategic policy support, teacher training, and a balanced approach to ethical considerations. This research contributes to the understanding of digital transformation in India’s commerce education system and provides insights for policymakers, educators, and academic institutions aiming to develop future-ready curricula aligned with technological advancements.
