Digital Economy and the Digital Business Environment

15 credits

Unique to the digital economy is that it is based on the value of time. Time cannot be stored, bottled or preserved. The course therefore teaches you how to avoid queues, project delays and time problems in agile projects. The main focus is on calculations of digital services, pricing issues, market strategic decisions regarding the digital service's switching costs, locked in effect and time leakage. The course uses simulation models of profit, productivity, costs and price calculations. The course's research area has been awarded.

Distance – study where you are

Perhaps you would like to study in the Swedish mountains, in a big city, or at home close to family? Many of our programmes and courses are offered in distance format.

Studying at a distance can be done in different ways, either entirely without physical gatherings or with only a few gatherings on campus or at one of our learning centres. The common denominator is that a large part of your studies takes place online. You communicate with the teacher and other students through a learning platform that includes discussion forums, opportunities for group work, and digital meetings. In many cases, you will also have access to recorded lectures via the learning platform.

The benefit of distance studies is the flexibility, something that is valuable if you want to be free to decide when and where you want to study. Some compulsory elements on you course or programme may take place during office hours, even though they are online.
