The Chancellor’s Digitalization staff unit was established on January 1, 2025. The digitalization of administrative processes is under the technical responsibility of JGU’s Chief Information Officer. The staff unit serves as the central point of contact for the administration with regard to digitalization projects. It supports the university in harnessing the potential of digital transformation and addressing the associated challenges.
We manage digitalization projects and support JGU institutions in selecting, implementing, and using information and communication systems, including aspects of organizational design. We implement digitalization projects in the administration, in close coordination with users from divisions, departments, and staff units. In addition to project management, our tasks include networking and coordinating stakeholders, driving innovation, and promoting the skills required for digital change.
The JGU Digitalization staff unit actively drives digital transformation by advancing a large number of projects. Examples include the introduction of e-billing and e-procurement, a self-service system for vehicle entry permits, the tendering of a data protection management system and the application management system for filling vacant positions, as well as the continued development of JGU software, such as identity management or the RAPS room planning system.
