The goal of the project is to find solutions for digitalisation’s challenges through a common effort. The project will now continue its work until the end of 2025, supported by funding from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research.

Minister of Education and Research Anja Karliczek said that digital teaching is key to modern and future-proof higher education teaching in Germany. She particularly invited students to take part in shaping the future of their universities as they know best what is needed. 

The minister called Hochschulforum Digitalisierung a strong companion for universities in order to combine their efforts and exchange knowledge. The federal ministry will fund this work with about 15 million Euros in the coming years.

Oliver Janoschka, managing director of Hochschulforum Digitalisierung, says the community-based, network-oriented approach is the main ingredient to the projects success.
