<jats:p>This study explores the utilization and perception of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools among students in higher education. With the growing accessibility of AI technologies, their integration into educational settings presents a new frontier for enhancing learning experiences. This research adopts a mixed-methods approach, including surveys and interviews, to delve into how students employ AI tools and their perceived benefits and drawbacks of AI usage in the context of entrepreneurship education in a business school. The findings reveal a diverse range of AI applications, highlighting benefits such as increased productivity, personalized learning, and enhanced linguistic capability. However, concerns regarding academic integrity, over-reliance on AI, and the need for clear usage guidelines are also identified. This study contributes to the understanding of AI's role in higher education and provides much-needed empirical evidence of AI usage from students’ perspectives. Our findings underscore the importance of balanced, informed, and ethical use of AI tools in higher education.</jats:p>
