As part of the annual meeting of the members of the ERCIS network, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Benjamin van Giffen, Professor of Information Systems and Digital Innovation, spoke about the initiation of a dialog and exchange of experience between the ERCIS partners on the development of innovative teaching formats at the interface of human and artificial/digital innovation. The aim is to establish international cooperation formats with the aim of further developing and adapting socially widely available approaches for teaching human-centered design methods and processes, in particular design thinking, for the generation of digital innovations, especially AI-based digital innovations.
The European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS) network is a dynamic international cooperation of research institutions and companies in the field of information systems. The members of the ERCIS network meet once a year at one of the partner institutions to discuss current topics, introduce new members and plan joint research or teaching activities. The network includes scientists, company representatives and partners from more than 25 countries, which provides the opportunity to address current challenges on the path to a digital Europe from a multidisciplinary and international perspective. The ERCIS network is led by Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c. Jörg Becker (University of Münster) and Prof. Dr. Jan vom Brocke (University of Münster and visiting professor at the University of Liechtenstein).
