Today's companies are facing fundamental change – driven by digitalisation, sustainability, new markets and changing expectations from customers and employees. Such transformations are crucial to remaining future-proof and securing long-term strategic competitiveness. Our Master's programme in Information Technology and Business Transformation qualifies you to architect, engineer and govern complex technology systems that drive enterprise-wide transformation. You will develop deep technical expertise in software architecture, AI engineering, data systems and cloud platforms.
The programme bridges rigorous computer science foundations with enterprise transformation management. During your degree, you will choose to specialise in Enterprise Data & AI Engineering or Enterprise Cloud & Platform Engineering. Hands-on learning, case studies and research provide direct preparation for technical leadership. In cooperation with SAP, industry tools, certifications and real-world methods are fully embedded throughout.
As a graduate of the Master's programme in Information Technology and Business Transformation, you will take on technical and architectural leadership at the intersection of enterprise technology and organisational change. A wide range of career paths will open up for you in national and international organisations, particularly in the following roles:
Typical employers include technology companies, large enterprises, SAP ecosystem partners, consultancies and public organisations.
In our master's programme, you will develop deep technical expertise in software architecture, AI engineering, data systems and cloud platforms. You will build rigorous foundations in enterprise transformation, software and platform architecture, process engineering, and data architecture. From the beginning, you will also engage with generative AI, governance and research methods.
Building on this, you will learn to analyse and optimise processes, design and evaluate enterprise architectures, and integrate AI and cloud technologies into complex enterprise environments. Modules on generative AI and emerging technologies go beyond innovation — developing the engineering depth and responsible deployment skills required in modern enterprises.
In the advanced phase, you will deepen your ability to manage transformation programmes and sharpen your profile by specialising in either enterprise data & AI engineering or enterprise cloud & platform engineering – preparing you for responsible roles in shaping digital transformation.
