SUMMARY:White paper on digital transformation of universities' internationalization process
DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p><span style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, san
 s-serif; font-size: 12px;">A number of studies on digital learning and the 
 digital university have appeared over the last few years, the most recent o
 ne being The Digital Turn by Centrum fuer Hochschulentwicklung Guetersloh G
 ermany. While the emergence of digital teaching and learning can be taken f
 or granted, the underlying processes enabling universities to function (rec
 ruitment, student administration, student services, credit administration, 
 budget allocation, controlling, project management, staff administration, s
 taff development etc) have attracted less attention so far.</span><br style
 ="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-
 size: 12px;" /><br style="color: #000000; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helv
 etica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;" /><span style="color: #000000; font-fa
 mily: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px;">The white pa
 per on the digital transformation of universities' internationalization pro
 cesses aims to be a blueprint for higher education institutions enhancing t
 he quality of international services and their cost efficiency. Digital tra
 nsformation in general unbundles core processes of any organization and rea
 ssembles them in a new and more efficient way. Focusing primarily on interf
 aces with international partners, this whitepaper provides guidelines and o
 ptions for changing processes, management structures and hierarchies.</span

 onically, universities offering innovative study programmes on the digital 
 economy, digital transformation and similar often lag far behind in the mod
 ernization of their administration processes and the adoption of new techno
 logies and management structures. Credibility and reputation of quality pro
 viders of higher education need a coherent package of high-quality student 
 services combined with excellent study programmes.</span><br style="color:
