Business Infοrmatiсs

The master's program in Business Informatics is conceptually and methodologically well-founded, as well as career and labor-market-oriented. The content of the M. Sc. Business Informatics can be easily adapted and individualized.

The master's degree in Business Informatics consists of four semesters (two years). The program has been devised in such a way that students are free to design their program. They also have the option of developing their academic profile by following one of the specialization tracks. Lecturers issue recommendations about which specialization track best fits the academic profile that the student wants to create. These tracks usually comprise five modules or 30 ECTS and also bridge the gap between the content covered during the project group component and the Master's thesis. The department issues a certificate for completed tracks upon request, as long as all the requirements have been met.

To make sure that students reach the minimum attainment levels for the master’s program in all areas of business informatics, they are required to take business informatics and economics modules. Students can also take modules from the Master’s degree in computing science. The project group and the Master’s thesis are core components of the degree; they are mandatory for all students enrolled in the program. The details of the individual modules are outlined in the degree-specific appendixes to the Master’s examination regulations.

Specialization tracks

The master's degree has deliberately been devised in such a way that students can design their program, without necessarily having to specialize in a particular direction.

However, students also have the option of specializing in one of the following three tracks:

• Operational Environmental Information Systems (BUIS).
• Industrial Information Systems (IIS).
• Business Intelligence (BI).
