ABSTRACT: The advent of digital intelligence technology marks a profound shift in cognitive and intellectual paradigms, presenting both opportunities and challenges for the modernization of governance frameworks and capabilities within universities. In this era, higher education faces evolving demands and transformations in principles of fairness, justice, and security, while grappling with issues such as the foundational basis for governance, the “agency” of intelligent machines, and methods of governance. To facilitate the reciprocal empowerment of “digital intelligence” and “rule of law”, it is imperative to advance governance concepts, guiding “legalization” with an informed “digital intelligence perspective”. This involves enhancing top-level strategic design and legislative reform, improving the digital intelligence capabilities of university governance, and fostering education in digital intelligence legal culture, thereby consistently advancing the standardization and legalization of smart universities.
