Study Business Information Technology / Wirtschaftsinformatik
Would you like an innovative job, to be at the cutting edge, to prepare yourself for the future with business and computer science knowledge and to help shape the digital future? Then the Bachelor's degree programme in Business Information Technology is just right for you.
At the FHNW you can study Wirtschaftsinformatik in German or Business Information Technology in English.
As a business informatics specialist, you work at the interface between business, information technology and innovation. You speak the language of business as well as the language of information technology. Your communication skills allow you to bridge the gap between the two fields. You hold discussions with all the Stakeholders and recognise their needs and requirements. You are also familiar with the challenges and processes of companies. At the same time, you know the technical possibilities of information technology and digitalisation. In this way, you ensure optimal interaction and actively participate in the further development and optimisation of your company.
You can choose a full-time or part-time study programme. You choose the topics of about one third of the study modules individually. These include student research projects, elective modules and the specialisation. By choosing a specialisation, you focus either on the technical, analytical or management-oriented aspects of business informatics and specialise in the corresponding subject area.
You are interested in topics such as processes, strategy or management and are just as fascinated by the technical world around software development, data and digitalisation. You think in a networked way, like to analyse, and are enthusiastic about innovative solutions for a sustainable future.
Never programmed before? Accounting still means nothing to you? Never mind. The lessons are designed so that no previous knowledge is required.
