HHL Professors on Corona and its effects

Digital Disruption in Academia
The COVID-19 pandemic has hit universities hard. For centuries we were used to personal interaction between, students, professors and researchers. Yes, there were new digital options (such as MOOCs), but the academia largely neglected those. But now, from one day to the other, we had the alternative to adapt to digital technologies (as we have been telling industry to do for quite some time now) or to halt university operations entirely.
In his HHL Expert Talk, Prof. Dr. Carsten Bartsch provides, largely based on personal experiences, answers to the following questions:
Which kind of short-term answers did academia find to the pandemic challenge and how could we learn from industry?
Which of those behavioral changes might be here to stay – and how do they fit into a concept of “University 4.0”?
What could a “University 4.0” look like and what will be its drivers way beyond a short-term pandemic pressure?
How will existing academic institutions have to change to avoid the dinosaurs´ fate
