Your future with a degree in Digital Business Management
Many companies still have no idea what possibilities digitalisation will bring to their business areas. There is often a lack of a strategy for the inevitable digital transformation in the company, which is due, among other things, to the lack of appropriately trained employees. The Digital Business Management master's degree programme addresses this circumstance by training qualified staff.
