Universität Mannheim has a Rectorate-approved AI directive that sets binding rules for members and affiliates on developing, procuring, using, controlling, placing on the market, and putting AI systems into operation.
In the service context, Universität Mannheim's directive allows members and affiliates to develop, procure, use, operate, place on the market, or put high-risk AI systems into operation only after the Rectorate has been informed and has expressly consented.
For service-context use, Universität Mannheim requires AI systems to be entered in the central AI register before development, procurement, operation, or market launch; confidential or personal data may be processed only in systems explicitly released for that purpose in the AI register, and systems marked not approved may not be used.
Universität Mannheim assigns users responsibility for the correctness, legal permissibility, and dissemination of AI-generated content, says AI outputs should be checked and critically assessed before further use, and requires transparent disclosure where a notice obligation applies.
The University of Mannheim AI FAQ says AI systems may be used in teaching when the system is university-approved, or the use is voluntary with no disadvantage for non-use, or the use is in elective courses with sufficient non-AI alternatives; it expressly forbids contexts where students are disadvantaged for non-use without an equivalent alternative.
The University of Mannheim AI FAQ says AI use in study is possible depending on context, but for each exam students should clarify with the responsible teacher whether and under what conditions AI-system use is permitted; serious non-compliance may lead to final failure of an exam component.
Universität Mannheim's Zentrum für Lehren und Lernen provides AI-in-teaching orientation, self-learning courses, workshops for teachers, students, and staff, and consultation for instructors, faculties, degree-program management, and departments developing AI strategies.
In an official 2023 teacher handout, Universität Mannheim's Zentrum für Lehren und Lernen advised teachers that ChatGPT is neither generally allowed nor generally prohibited and that teachers should decide for each exam whether and under what conditions students may use it and communicate that decision in time.
