Majoring in Business Informatics
Computers have long ceased to be an exclusive source of amusement
for cracks. By far the largest user of information technology today
is industry and commerce. Without information, today’s most
important production factor, our services-based society could not
exist. Computers, networks and the Internet create new value, business
models and organizational structures. This is fertile ground for
communicative and creative people who know how to exploit the combined
potential of information technology and business needs. It is precisely
this area that the bachelor of science in business informatics
focuses on.
As a student of business informatics you will receive a solid
foundation in business administration and management with emphasis
on the commercial benefits of state-of-the-art information and
communication technology.

business informatics could be the right area of specialization
