Informatics, Master Programme
120 creditsTake your career to the next level by mastering digital transformation and human-centered technology. This programme gives you advanced skills to design inclusive digital solutions and to apply artificial intelligence (AI) strategically to drive innovation across organisations and society.
As a student, you will learn to understand and influence digital transformation processes, design technology that enhances human interaction, and get a balanced combination of theory and practice with real-world cases, research-based methods, and problem-based learning. You can choose between two specialisations:
• Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) with focus on designing intuitive, inclusive, and user-friendly digital experiences, where you develop skills in interaction design, UX/UI, and human-centered solutions. This specialisation is ideal for you if you value creativity, empathy, and human-centred thinking in the design of digital systems.
• AI-driven digital transformation with focus on leveraging artificial intelligence strategically to lead innovation, drive organisational change, and create intelligent services. By choosing this specialization, you’ll gain the skills and tools needed to lead high-impact initiatives and guide strategic choices, and become prepared for some of the most in-demand roles in a tech-driven future.
Throughout the programme, you study in an international environment, working on projects that connect theory to practice. Both specialisations give you a strong foundation in informatics and prepare you for a global career.
Career
After graduation, your career path reflects your chosen specialisation. With a focus on Human–Computer Interaction, you can work as a UX designer or interaction designer to create intuitive and inclusive digital environments that improve everyday life.
With a focus on AI-driven digital transformation, you can step into roles such as AI strategist, digital transformation consultant, or product owner for AI-based systems, leading organisational change and developing innovative intelligent services.
