The University community has the expertise and infrastructure necessary to fully support such an ambition. As the country&#8217;s only university, the University of Luxembourg will also take up its role in addressing the ethical and societal challenges arising from the digital transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"initiatives\"\n    >\nInitiatives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"ulux-list\">\n<li class=\"ulux-list-item\">The University will strengthen its expertise in the field of high-performance computing, taking into account research and education needs. In coordination with national public and private actors, this investment aims to support research in all STEM and SSH disciplines and to provide the country with highly qualified talent. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"ulux-list-item\">Activities in the fields of quantum science and technology will be intensified and a quantum strategy developed to bring together initiatives across Luxembourg. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"ulux-list-item\">Artificial intelligence, which has a profound impact on society, deserves special attention. Training on and with AI will be strengthened. Technological mastery, critical thinking and understanding of ethical dilemmas will be central elements of this. The University will increasingly use AI as a tool to accelerate scientific discoveries and their impact, particularly when based on massive data sets, whether in science, technology or Social Sciences and Humanities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"ulux-list-item\">The University will reinforce its activities and expertise further in High Performance Computing (HPC) and data science and enter the quantum era. It has the aim to stimulate their wider use across all its disciplines in both Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics and Social Sciences and Humanities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"section section wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-section\">\n    <div class=\"container xl:max-w-screen-xl\">\n        \n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-unilux-blocks-heading\"        id=\"discover-also\"\n    >\nDiscover also&#8230;<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover quick-link-list\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-item\">\n    <a\n                    href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/research-en\/research-areas\/health-and-medicine\/\"\n                    class=\"quick-link\"\n            target=\"\"\n    >\n            <span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n                <span class=\"quick-link__text\">\n                    Medicine and health                <\/span>\n                <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg>            <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-unilux-blocks-quick-link-discover-item\">\n    <a\n                    href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/research-en\/research-areas\/sustainable-and-societal-development\/\"\n                    class=\"quick-link\"\n            target=\"\"\n    >\n            <span class=\"quick-link__container\">\n                <span class=\"quick-link__text\">\n                    Sustainable and societal development                <\/span>\n                <svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" class=\"icon icon-outline icon--arrow-right \"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/wp-content\/themes\/unilux-theme\/assets\/images\/icons\/icons-outline.svg#icon--arrow-right\"><\/use><\/svg>            <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digitalisation, ICT, data science and artificial intelligence (AI) are playing an ever greater role in everyday life and are transforming how universities fulfil their missions of research, education and societal, economic and cultural impact.
