The Covid-19 emergency paves the way for accelerated innovation & change esp. in the university sector which is currently being transformed into an experiment in online teaching. The situation constitutes an extreme case that can elucidate digital transformation as part of a crisis management situation that requires immediate response from all organizational levels. Our case is the Faculty of Social Sciences, which has turned 100% digital in the wake of Covid-19, and thus provides a unique opportunity to study digital transformation in real time and follow up on the longterm impacts of the transformation. Qualitative & quantitative data will be used to examine the accelerated digital transformation of university teaching activities. This project contributes to extant digital transformation literature with new empirical insights as well as theorizing about the management of immediate response-ability and subsequent sustain-ability of accelerated digital transformation in a crisis.
