This study proposes a set of initiatives to transform the Salitre campus of the Gerardo Barrios University in San Miguel, El Salvador, into a Smart Campus inspired by Smart City concepts. Through a documentary research, a detailed diagnosis of the campus and a SWOT analysis, several proposals were defined grouped in six axes: Smart Government, Smart Environment, Smart Living, Smart Economy, Smart People and Smart Mobility. The viability of the initiatives was evaluated considering their acceptance by the authorities and stakeholders, as well as a feasibility study. The results show that the transformation of the Salitre campus into a Smart Campus may be possible and would bring multiple benefits in terms of efficiency, sustainability, innovation and quality of life for the university community. The study establishes the basis for future projects and research, promoting digital and sustainable transformation in the educational and community environment of El Salvador.
