About the Program

Digital progress is fundamentally changing the way we live and generate wealth. This also applies to the foundations of our value creation processes, in which data develops into a central raw material and data-based business models develop into a basis for all sectors of the economy. Particularly the continuous flow of data determines the use of new trends, innovations and research opportunities. The use and evaluation of data and data streams is the driving force behind progress in all sectors - be it industry, mobility, energy, education or healthcare. The program can also be studied with a company from the winter semester 2023/24, with the possibility to complete an internship at a partner company and receive a salary.
