Digital Strategy
The Digital Strategy of the University of Hamburg is the result of a one-year strategy process carried out at the University of Hamburg in 2022. The strategic objectives and areas of activity developed therein are based on a holistic understanding of digitalization. Digitalization is thus understood as a complex, technology-driven, and culture-shaping change process that includes the entire University with all its areas and members.
Accordingly, digitalization should be used where it is goal-oriented and meaningful, can create added value, and enables (international) collaboration and participation. At the same time, the culture of physical togetherness and personal encounter should continue to be the core of our self-image as a university in the future. The Digital Strategy is divided into a Digital Strategy for UHH and four area-specific digital strategies for Research, Studies and Teaching, Knowledge Exchange, and Administration.
Guiding the development of the Digital Strategy for Studies and Teaching at the UHH is a holistic Digital Vision for Teaching in times of digitalization, which integrates various perspectives:
- The University as an institution
- Teaching staff as guides and designers of learning spaces
- Students as learners and co-designers of learning spaces.
Digital tools and scenarios should be used in such a way that they enrich studies and teaching, contribute to an exemplary increase in quality, and lead to the promotion of digital and data literacy.
