The Master's programme in Business & Information Systems Engineering at the University of Augsburg is divided into a compulsory and a specialisation area. It therefore offers a lot of flexibility and gives you the opportunity to set individual accents during your studies.

The compulsory area

In the compulsory area, the students' methodological knowledge is deepened beyond the basics they acquired in the Bachelor's programme. Advanced, quantitative methods form a foundation of the Master's programme in Business & Information Systems.

The specialisation area

In the specialisation area, the important skills for business informatics specialists are further developed. In order to give more weight to personal interests, one of the two specialisations can be chosen:

Business-oriented specialisation (Major in OFIM)

The computer science-oriented specialisation teaches supplementary computer science competences in addition to further core contents of business computer science. The specialisation topic of this specialisation is core informatics, which focuses on automation as well as practical project and research work.
