MASTER OF ENGINEERING IN BUSINESS INFORMATICS

Students in the program benefit from a diverse and business-oriented environment, with some participants being full-time working professionals from various backgrounds. The teaching methods encompass online and contact sessions, class discussions, teamwork, self-study, business simulations, workshops, and seminars. Instruction is provided by staff and experts with both business and academic experience. The program brings together engineering and business professionals in a cross-disciplinary group, with engineering and technology-educated individuals assigned to the Engineering stream and business-educated students to the Business stream. Despite the separate streams, both groups study together, provided that applicants choose the correct stream during the application process. 

The Master’s Degree Programme in Business Informatics focuses on enhancing business skills in the context of technology-driven companies in the digital age. 

  The curriculum includes advanced professional studies, consisting of Business Strategy and Management (15 ECTS) and Business Analysis and Development (15 ECTS).  A significant component of the program is the Master’s Thesis, which involves planning and implementing an R&D project, typically within the student’s own workplace.   Master’s theses in this program often revolve around topics like digital transformation, data analytics, business information systems, digitization of operations and customer experiences, business intelligence, and marketing research. 

  Students receive support and guidance from the school throughout the thesis process, including a structured 7-GATE approach, continuous guidance, and instruction on research methods and problem-solving skills.    Success in completing the Master’s thesis depends on the student’s education, motivation, and hard work.
