Business Information Systems

Modern information and communications technologies are becoming ever more extensive and complex, even as they are being used by ever more people. No business can survive today without technical information systems. Yet each business has its own demands depending on its structure, scale and organisation. This is why there has been and continues to be a high demand for experts, who are educated especially in the challenges that working with information systems brings.

Please note

The Business Information Systemsmajor is offered in the German language and is thus directed at prospective students with a good command of German. The programme’s German-language web pages provide detailed information needed on the content of the course and application procedures.
