Project Management and IT (German)

Forward-looking: study Project Management and IT

Project management and IT have become an integral part of the modern corporate world. From small start-ups to large corporations - almost all companies today are project-orientated. On the Bachelor's degree programme in Project Management and IT, students learn how to successfully plan, manage and implement projects.

Students work on real practical projects in close cooperation with our corporate partners during their studies. This enables them to deepen their knowledge of typical project challenges and learn how to manage them effectively. At the same time, students acquire intercultural management skills, which are particularly important for international project assignments.

Thanks to this practical training, graduates are ideally prepared for a dynamic, project-orientated environment. Whether you later work in small, agile teams or in large, global organisations - the degree opens up a wide range of career opportunities and a key role in corporate development.

The programme includes lessons in English as a foreign language, and English is also the working language for specific key topics.

As a graduate you will be able to:

Assume responsibility for team leadership and coordination in small to medium-sized national and international (IT) projects
Take on core project management functions within the framework of plan-based, hybrid and agile projects
take charge of resource and financial management in projects and apply risk management methods
Planning and executing small to medium-sized IT projects, developing IT strategies and IT products, and analysing and implementing technological solutions
Develop and implement software solutions and test strategies that meet requirements
Design and optimise data and database models and use AI applications in a targeted manner
Making decisions that take into account business, financial, legal, social and environmental implications
Collaborate in the analysis, modelling, improvement and control of process and quality management and support creative processes.
Systematically analyse and solve problems and actions and communicate them in technical English.

Typical career fields open to you after graduation:

Project controller
Product owner or SCRUM master
Project Management Office (PMO) employee

Data modeller

My decision to study Project Management and IT was largely due to a personal interest in the topics. The combination of these two - now ubiquitous - topics seemed particularly attractive to me with a view to my future career. In view of the ongoing digitalisation of the economy and society, this course of studies also represents an excellent investment in my own skills from my point of view.
