About this book

Bochum University of Applied Sciences has identified the central transformation topics ofsustainability and digitalisation as a key goal and anchored them in its strategy. In severalstudy programmes, students are already being prepared and qualified as future expertsfor their tasks as agents of change in the transformation process. The importance of digitalisation for solving future sustainabilitychallenges is clearly becoming the dominant factor. In its report Our Common Digital Future, the Advisory Council on Global Change (WBGU) emphasises that digitalisation mustbe designed in such a way that it can serve as a lever and support for the Great Transformationtowards sustainability and can be synchronised with it.In this context, technological approaches and use cases from the areas of blockchain anddecentralized finance are prominently discussed in the public debate and are still controversialwith regard to their contribution to sustainable development.
