A unique combination for your future!

The part-time Master's degree programme in Project Management & Data Analytics offers a unique combination of state-of-the-art project management expertise and data analytics skills.

As a graduate, you will become a sought-after interface by mediating between business and technical departments, managing projects based on data and carrying out complex data analyses and making them comprehensible. You will also be optimally prepared to lead companies through the digital transformation.

You will gain a holistic perspective on digitalisation, a deep understanding of artificial intelligence and digital humanism, which is particularly valuable at a time when interdisciplinary and critical thinking is becoming increasingly important.

Data Analytics from Scratch

No in-depth knowledge of data analytics is required to start the degree programme. In cooperation with the Berlin University of Applied Sciences (HTW Berlin), which has many years of experience in teaching data science, parts of the courses are offered so that you can learn all the necessary skills during the course of your studies.

Highlights from the degree programme

Expertise in the application of state-of-the-art technologies, project management tools and the Python programming language will make you a sought-after expert at the interface of project management and data analytics. We attach great importance to you being able to apply the skills you have acquired in practice, for example by working with project data in the Data Management Lab.

In addition, we offer you the opportunity to acquire valuable additional qualifications in agile leadership, as well as project and process management certificates, such as Professional Scrum Master 1, which will further strengthen your own expertise.

Career-enhancing studies in Vienna
