"Digitalization and sustainability are key transformations of our time. The urgent sustainability problems must be solved quickly and successfully - digital solutions can help. And the digital transformation can only succeed if we take resource aspects, ecological limits and social needs into account at the same time."
Prof. Kora Kristof, Vice President Digitalization and Sustainability

Digitalization and sustainability have long been researched, taught and implemented together at KIT. The two cross-cutting topics are also closely linked at a strategic level with the KIT 2025 Strategy and the Digitalization and Sustainability Executive Board Department. Hence, they are an explicit subject of KIT's future development.

With the "Digitalization and Sustainability Interface Project", we aim to support KIT in making even more substantial contributions at the interface of digitalization and sustainability for the future. This participation project seeks to identify, prioritize, and implement the future-oriented topics and potentials of KIT at the interface of digitalization and sustainability in research, higher education, transfer, and internal processes by collaborating with all KIT members.

Further information can be found on the KIT intranet.
