“…Also, it affects universities in their role as a teaching and researching organization [1]. Universities use new technologies to modify their processes; for example, developing simulated learning environments via virtual reality [2], video archives of lectures, and massive open online courses (MOOC) supporting the student's ability to learn independently regarding time and place [1].

Digitalization is an essential driver for change, also influencing universities in their operation. However, the graduation certificate is still paper-based and does not fit employers' digitized recruitment processes. Digitizing the graduation certificate is overdue to align with the digitized processes of employers and universities. However, there is only a few research on that issue. This paper aims to conduct a systematic literature analysis. Therefore, we investigated 147 articles in the context of research on digital credentials. The results show that, although there is an increasing interest in this research area, the research community lacks an unique understanding of digital credentials. The paper gives an overview of research made so far and contributes to identifying research gaps in the context of digital credentials.

The required skills and knowledge expected from human capital is affected by Industry 4.0. In order to keep up with this movement and graduate qualified human resources, universities need to update themselves and transform to University 4.0. In this study, research was conducted on the sample selected from large and small universities with different characteristics. In this research, first, the structural characteristics of the universities and the information management systems used which concern all the stakeholders in that institution were examined. Also, a roadmap is proposed to help the digital transformation process of universities. The flow of the elements in this model is logically determined to form a basis for the whole transformation process. This study contributes to the literature by introducing a new model to the researchers in this field and to all employees who will endeavor in this transformation process.
