Abstract

        The current study aimed to achieve digital sustainability in Egyptian universities in the light of fourth industrial revolution, and in order to achieve this goal, the study used the descriptive approach, through identifying the theoretical foundations of digital sustainability and fourth industrial revolution in university institutions, besides monitoring the efforts done by Egyptian universities to achieve digital sustainability. To collect data a questionnaire was applied to a random sample of (505) faculty members in Egyptian public universities. The study results included: The degree of availability of digital sustainability in Egyptian universities was medium, with an arithmetic mean of (1.75). As for the dimensions order, the institutional (organizational) dimension came in first rank with a medium degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.84), followed by (the cultural dimension) in second rank with a medium degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.83), then the social dimension in third rank with a medium degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.78), then (the economic dimension) in the fourth rank with a medium degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.77), followed by (the environmental dimension) in the fifth rank with a weak degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.65), and the last rank was for the (Technical dimension) with a weak degree of availability, and an arithmetic mean of (1.63), and the degree of approval of the requirements for achieving digital sustainability in Egyptian universities in the light of fourth industrial revolution was high, with an arithmetic mean of (2.68). The results also revealed that there’re statistically significant differences at significance levels of (0.01) and (0.05) between the responses of the sample members regarding the degree of availability of digital sustainability in Egyptian universities according to the (gender) variable,  for the male category, and according to the variable of the nature of the faculty, for the practical category, and according to the variable of courses in the field of digital transformation, for the category of those who have obtained courses, while the results of the study did not show statistically significant differences at a significance level of (0.05) according to the variable of the job degree. In the light of the results of the theoretical and field study, the researchers built a suggested proposal for achieving digital sustainability in Egyptian universities in the light of fourth industrial revolution.
