Abstract

Against the backdrop of rapid information technology development, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies are being increasingly applied across various fields, including finance and accounting. Owing to the growing complexity of economic activities and other contributing factors, traditional financial management methods are no longer adequate for university settings. Consequently, universities have begun introducing AI technologies to optimize and enhance their financial management operations. This paper focuses specifically on Robotic Process Automation (RPA). Drawing on the current challenges faced by university finance departments, it systematically investigates the application scenarios of RPA in university financial management and summarizes the associated advantages and potential challenges.
