Course Description and Structure
Objective:
The course "Digital Sustainability & Responsibility" deals with ecological, social, and ethical aspects of the use of digital technologies. The focus is on how the potential of digital technologies can be used to economically overcome ecological and social challenges as well as how digital technology can be used ethically and responsibly in organizations.
By means of case studies with project partners primarily from the industry, students analyze, evaluate, and work on practical and well-founded solutions for challenges at the interface between digital technologies, sustainability, and responsibility.
The course provides students the knowledge and skills to work in teams on creative, analytical, and effective solutions that harmonize economic, ecological, and social aspects. Through the course's practice-oriented approach, students develop a comprehensive understanding of the possibilities and complexity of these questions.
