Designers of the Digital Future
As future IT managers and “shapers of the digital future,” our graduates combine technical expertise with sound management skills to lead companies securely and purposefully into a successful digital future.
Whether a small regional business or a large international corporation, almost every company relies on qualified business IT specialists. They design operational processes and organizational structures to be efficient, sustainable, and future-oriented through the targeted use of modern information technologies.
In addition to mastering current IT systems and digital trends, our graduates have comprehensive knowledge of strategic planning, process optimization, and business management. The interdisciplinary education enables a holistic view of economic relationships and specifically prepares students for demanding specialist and management tasks.
A particular highlight of the program is the opportunity to participate in international double degree programs, such as the master’s program in IT, Digitalization & Sustainability at Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU) or the Data Science program at the Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA).
