Marian University is proud to host the 18th Academic Symposium which explores “The Universal Impact of Technology and Communication: How Does It Influence Our Lives and the Lives of Our Leaders?” The symposium will take place on Tuesday evening, March 25, and Wednesday, March 26, 2025, on the Marian University campus.

Have you ever wondered, “What role should artificial intelligence play in effective communication?” or “How do we balance emotional intelligence and digital literacy?” This year’s theme will address pressing questions about the moral, social, and economic implications of technological advancements, including the use of artificial intelligence, digital literacy, and the balance between privacy and freedom in an interconnected world. The event will also explore how communication technologies impact leadership, diversity, equity, inclusion, and emotional intelligence.

Students, faculty, staff, emeriti, and members of the greater community are all invited to engage in meaningful dialogue about the ways technology and communication shape our personal lives, workplaces, and societal structures. The symposium will feature a mix of presentations, panel discussions, and interactive sessions.”
