Digitalisation and Artificial Intelligence

Since October 2022, the university has had a digitalisation strategy for the following areas of action:

  • Teaching and studies as well as continuing education, including library management
  • Infrastructure
  • Applied research and research management
  • Transfer and network management
  • University and departmental administration
  • IT and information security
  • Personnel development and flexible working models

In May 2025, the university's AI strategy was adopted at the Senate session:

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI), especially generative AI, into teaching, research and transfer, but also into administration, is essential for universities today. In a world increasingly shaped by digital technology and automated processes, the competent use of AI tools is becoming a fundamental professional skill. Organisations and companies themselves are also using AI for their own processes. Koblenz University of Applied Sciences positions itself as a future-oriented and innovative university that optimally prepares students for the challenges of a world shaped by AI and uses AI systems in teaching, research and administration in an ethically and legally responsible manner. 

The university has defined goals and measures for the following areas of action:

  • Teaching/skills transfer
  • Research
  • Transfer
  • Administrative optimisation
  • Resources and sustainability
  • Ethics and legal aspects

To ensure the successful implementation of the AI strategy, Koblenz University of Applied Sciences will conduct regular evaluations and report once a year.
