Dear colleagues,
We invite you to participate in UniAgent, the 1st Shared Task on Agentic AI in University Administration, at CIKM 2026 in Rome.
UniAgent evaluates agentic AI in a bounded, enterprise-like environment: the administration of a public university.
THE TASK
Your agent is given a real administrative case from the University of Kassel. It has to retrieve the regulations that apply, plan the steps required, and produce a solution a human would accept, for example a compliant travel request.
Not every case can be approved as submitted. Agents must check the case against the applicable rules, found in the collection we provide. Agents must flag non-compliant cases with a justification.
