MA/MS in Wirtschaftsinformatik

This consecutive master's programme in information systems is intended for graduates of computer science with an economics application subject and for graduates of economics with a computing focus. A foundation phase of introductory courses lets students fill gaps in either computing or economics. Building on the bachelor's degree, the master's deepens research-oriented knowledge in areas such as information systems, simulation, artificial intelligence, e-business, process and supply chain management, and IT solutions in finance. Students may take courses from economics, information systems and core computer science and build an individual focus within information systems. A project seminar, or alternatively a seminar and an internship, is compulsory, and the studies end with a master's thesis. Teaching is in German and English, the standard period is four semesters, and students can begin in either semester.
