Education for the Digital Future
Digitalisation affects us all. The public discourse is buzzing with a plethora of concepts: digital transformation, data science, and mobile computing are but a few trending topics. Together they represent the many facets of our digital future. We may not yet know its exact form, but digitalisation sets out to transform every fabric of how we conduct business as well as how we communicate and collaborate - in short, the very way we live together in a globalised, digitalised society.
This programme is designed for those who want to participate in the shaping of that digital future. It is geared toward those who want to know more than a buzzword, but also want to understand the underlying mechanisms. It is a programme that grants students the freedom to actively compose their own individual curriculum.
The education with us can be broad or specialised. It prepares students for starting their own businesses, for jobs in specific industries or for academic careers. In short, this programme puts students in the driver’s seat to the journey into the digital future.
The Master of Science in Information Systems at the University of Münster is a full-time programme taking place over the course of four semesters and totalling 120 credit points. The programme is taught exclusively in English. The Department of Information Systems is part of the AACSB-accredited School of Business & Economics. It also enjoys close ties with the Computer Science Department. This allows for a truly interdisciplinary programme that integrates information systems, management, computer science, and quantitative methods. The curriculum is built around seven thematic areas of specialisation ("tracks") reflecting current business needs and research endeavours. The tracks include Information Management, Process Management, Business Intelligence, Business Networks, Information Systems Development, Logistics, Production & Retail, and Marketing.
During their course of study, students also have the opportunity to spend a semester abroad or do an internship abroad.
