Universities and COVID-19
Whether flexible working time models, the establishment of crisis management teams or admission procedures – throughout the country, stakeholders from universities and from politics are asking themselves a number of questions: What has proven successful during the pandemic and what has proved to be ineffectual? Which bright ideas and convincing examples from home or abroad are worthy of imitation? What lessons can be learned from the crisis and applied to normal operations? And what might tomorrow’s crisis-proof higher education system look like post-coronavirus pandemic?
Digitisation
The Hochschulforum Digitalisierung (HFD) supports higher education institutions (HEI) in the strategic anchoring and the use of digitalisation in teaching, and joins forces with them to develop future-oriented scenarios for HEIs in the digital age. The think tank is run jointly by the Stifterverband, the CHE Centre for Higher Education and the German Rectors’ Conference (HRK).ExpertiseCHE in facts
