Computer Science for Business

Create Digital Experiences for Users

Computer Science for Business is a multidisciplinary study that bridges the gap between technical and management aspects. On the technical side, the programme explores data science topics, not just for management reports or big data, but also for specific products, such as data management in electric cars. It also covers AI and machine learning, focusing on how AI can assist with data science projects and quality control.

On the business side, you will learn everything needed to lead IT projects or IT departments, including project planning, budgeting, and team leadership. This programme is ideal for those with a technical background, an interest in IT-business, and an entrepreneurial drive.

This programme is for students who want to gain more knowledge in business to boost their qualifications for management positions, as well as for developers who wish to dive deeper into technical topics like AI or Data Science.

Study Content

The master’s programme lasts three semesters, in which you acquire the skills to work in companies in the area of user experience, but to also be a product owner or strategic planner in similar fields. You will gain practical knowledge through numerous projects and case studies in each semester. In preparation for the job market, you will not only acquire the needed theoretical knowledge in the field of UX design, but you will also acquire important skills to help you apply this knowledge to practice and learn how to use the relevant tools. In addition, you will be able to oversee projects with different frameworks and work with others to come to a successful product. A scientific-theoretical orientation of the master’s programme is shown in the examination of current research statuses in the lectures, as well as in the preparation of scientific papers.
