Focus groups
DigiK focus groups have as their objective the interfaculty exchange of University members on topics relevant to digitalization in research, teaching, continuing education, service and administration.
Members of the University who are interested in the digitalization topics of the focus groups, should get in touch with the spokesperson for the relevant focus group. If you are interested in setting up a further DigiK focus group, please consult the regulations. You will find the link at the bottom.
