Abstract: Given the rapid adoption of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) in higher education, it poses significant risks and opportunities. This study analyzes GAI tools among master's students in Project Management at a university in Honduras. Using an expert-validated instrument and a quantitative approach applied to a sample of 70 students, the benefits, perceived risks, patterns of use, and ethical considerations were explored. The results show almost universal use (95.71%), with frequent weekly use and tools such as ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini being the most widely used. Students appreciate GAI primarily for its potential to understand complex concepts and explore new ideas. They also expressed high ethical awareness and low training in the subject. This provides evidence of the urgent need for clear institutional policies coupled with digital literacy programs in GAI.
