Do you want to prepare yourself professionally for the digital future? Then join us on April 29, 2024 at 6:00 p.m. for a digital information session on the part-time, English-language MBA program "Digital Business & AI" leading to a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree. Well-founded fundamentals of digital technologies, artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, big data analytics, IT security and IT law complete the curriculum, which is taught by proven experts from academia and practice.

Given the number of partnerships our department has around the world, there are many attractive places left unfilled each year after the selection process closes in winter. These are advertised here for the academic year 24/25, and the modalities of selection remain the same.

Do you also want to prepare yourself professionally for the digital future, including the fields of artificial intelligence, IT security and management? Then attend our digital information event on Wednesday, March 20, 2024, which will teach you the most important aspects of the part-time MBA.
