What you study

The MSc in Digital Business Management sits where business administration meets technology. The programme builds on business administration, digital technologies, IT and data science, plus organisational and management perspectives. You work with theories and strategies in digital business and get hands-on with advanced methods and tools used where business and technology meet.

Digital transformation is treated as a company-wide change process, not a single IT project. You look at how firms use data and algorithms to improve efficiency, how they interact with customers, suppliers and other stakeholders, and how they create new business models, products and services. The track covers both technical skills such as programming and non-technical skills such as digital business understanding and the ability to drive digital innovation.
