Summary/Abstract: The social change necessitated by the ICT revolution and the gradual shrinking of the world in line with the global village paradigm has had an impact on both the perception and functioning of the university as a public institution. The contemporary university, despite the norms and procedures developed in previous decades and even centuries, has to adapt in a leapfrogging manner to the requirements of both the digital society and the digital economy while retaining its existing identity and the unique role it plays in the social structure. The aim of this article is, on the one hand, to present the transformations experienced by the academy in the perspective of social change and, on the other hand, to present our own research on the evaluation of the digitisation of university processes from the perspective of the postcovid experience. The study involved 433 students and 133 academic teachers employed both on a full-time basis and cooperating with the university on civil law contracts.
