Digitalisation as impact on sustainability
Sustainability and digitalisation are currently two very dominant buzzwords in our society. Together, they form an important research area with great potential. The digital age is also called the ‘fourth industrial revolution’. It focuses on economic factors such as new technologies, innovation gains, the generation of new sales, higher productivity, and increased efficiency. At the same time, efficiency gains are crucial for reducing resource consumption. But efficiency is not always synonymous with sustainability. In this context, we ask ourselves what impact digitalisation has on sustainability in higher education.

Efficiency through artificial intelligence
Artificial Intelligence is defined as the development of computer systems that use reasoning and other human characteristics to perform tasks on their own.</p><p>AI has also officially entered the field of higher education. It has the potential to bring significant change to colleges and universities of all types and sizes. But can artificial intelligence increase efficiency in higher education?

Teaching sustainability
Education for Sustainable Development provides formal and informal learning opportunities that enable all students to develop the knowledge, skills, attitudes and values required to contribute to a sustainable future. We take a look at the teaching of sustainability in higher education.

Industry best practice
The importance of digitalisation and sustainability is increasing in almost every sector. As with all matters of sustainability, the issue is simple in theory but complex in practice. We are therefore looking forward to learning from industry best practices on how companies in the industry combine digitalisation and sustainability.

Academic best practice
Digital instruction as well as working and learning from home have produced numerous benefits and challenges. When we talk about the impact of digitalisation on sustainability in higher education, a best practice from a higher education institution cannot be missing.
