Abstract:
The digital transformation encounters not only industry and society, but also universities. Universities have to address the digital transformation in several ways: Digital transformation must be integrated into the curricula of their study programs. Additionally, they might want to establish own research programs in this area. Finally, universities have to digitally transform their own organization and administration. Universities are nowadays increasingly confronted with transfer or the so-called third mission, which manifests itself in growing social interest and the transfer of knowledge and technology. To be able to successfully withstand this transformation, a structured model was created. In order to pass through this process and to apply digital transformation as a university, internal conditions like the digital infrastructure as well as external conditions, such as higher education acts play a major role.
