From basic knowledge to your personal expert know-how

• Within this programme, the Core and Advanced Sections cover the theoretical and methodological basis. You can select between two major groups by choosing the modules Information Systems I & II and Digital Transformation or Information Systems and Environmental Sustainability, Analytics and Applications, and Digital Transformation and Innovation.
• The Specialisation Section teaches major-specific basics and, in addition, advanced skills within the same area. While Computer Science is compulsory, you can also choose another from three areas.
• The Supplementary Section serves as an additional section for developing a more specific profile–either by deepening and specialising or by diversifying knowledge. According to our interdisciplinary approach further modules from business administration as well as from social sciences or economics are available to students.
• With the Master’s Thesis required for the successful completion of your studies, you underline the knowledge and skills you have personally acquired throughout the programme and are ready to continue your career as an expert in your field.
