Year 2 (two semesters)
You will take programming courses that emphasize the principles of Programming and Computing fundamentals. Students will cover topics such as Digital Technology, Computer Architecture, Measurement and Control, Operating Systems and Computer Networks, Web Programming, Databases, etc.

Year 3 (two semesters)
You will cover the essential aspects of computing science in breadth and depth by the end of this year. You will gain knowledge in Information Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Graphic s, etc. In this academic year you will specialize in chosen areas.
Currently we offer the following options of specialization: Engineering Application or Software Development.

Year 4 (one semester)
In this last semester you will have the opportunity to select courses from a range of options, and you will focus on the preparation of your final project, i.e. the thesis.

Course curriculum

To complement our education, we have created several competence centers in cooperation with multinational firms in the field informatics (Microsoft, CISCO, IBM). By embedding up-to-date technological knowledge into the thematic of our major, minor or optional subjects, and by providing internship opportunities, we are able to offer high quality training and education for all our students.

BSc in Business Informatics

Degree: BSc in Business Informatics
Qualification: Business Informatics Engineer
Type of course: Online and full-time undergraduate degree course
Duration of the course: 7 semesters

Course description

In undergraduate Business Informatics program students gain comprehensive expertise in the fields of computer sciences and in business and management. The business word is dominated by the need to analyse information and hence to make appropriate decision. This means setting up processes to identify the information requirements of an organisation and to analyse data so that appropriate decisions and strategies can be adopted.
This field of study will give you a sound foundation in information systems from the basics of management information systems to dedicated decision support, database and expert systems.
Studying business as part of the course allows students to gain a firm understanding of the role of business in society and develop knowledge of the main functional areas.
A key aim of our programme is to combine academic knowledge with transferable skills in order to enhance employability
