The Role of Digital Transformation in Enhancing Agility and Circular Economy Integration in Higher Education
Subject area: Management and Commerce · Area of research: Marketing
Abstract
This study explores how digital transformation supports institutional agility and promotes circular economy (CE) integration in higher education. Using Galgotias University as a case study, the research evaluates student perceptions of digital tools, their impact on learning, and their contribution to sustainable practices. A mixed-method approach, based on survey data from 22 students, reveals widespread use of LMS and online platforms, positive perceptions of digital flexibility, and indirect support for CE practices like paperless learning. However, issues such as login failures, infrastructure gaps, and low awareness of sustainability frameworks highlight the need for better digital training and strategic alignment. The study concludes with recommendations for improving digital literacy, infrastructure, and CE education.
