The degree program encourages students to deal with complex issues and enables them to implement both economic and IT concepts.
 
The course is divided into four module strands:

• Scientific Fundamentals:
  Principles of scientific and team-oriented work as well as application of mathematical models for problem solving.
• Business Analysis and Modelling:
  From the analysis and modelling of operational processes via requirements engineering to digital business models and their representation.
• Business Application Systems:
  From the conception and use of operational systems in the company to the preparation and analysis of the resulting data as a basis for decision-making.
• IT Management:
  From the implementation and management of individual projects in the IT environment to short- to long-term planning of the company-wide IT infrastructure.

The flexible design of the modules allows you to study on a self-organized part-time basis. The courses are held partly in German and partly in English.

Study plan

You can find the recommended study plan under "Downloads and links".

The Master's program builds on the Bachelor's program in Information Systems at Technical University of Applied Sciences Augsburg. It is designed to give graduates the opportunity to gain further qualifications in this subject area with a scientifically oriented Master's program and thus to recommend themselves for a prominent position in the planning, selection, development and project planning of economic IT applications.

Career as an expert in business

Career as a digital founder

Putting your own ideas into practice, realizing your own ideas or the dream of a lucrative exit. For more and more university graduates, founding their own company is a promising career alternative. As an entrepreneurial university, THA offers an ideal environment for trying things out and getting started. The THA_funkenwerk provides support with lectures, incubator programs, coaching, events and much more.

Career as a young researcher

The research institutes based at the Faculty of Computer Science also offer interested students the opportunity to join the scientific community as a research assistant or staff member.

The THA_innos (Institute for Innovative Security) works on IT security issues on behalf of companies and public funding bodies: from the development of secure products to forensic analyses and the securing of entire industrial plants.

The THA_ired (Institute for Resource-Efficient Data Transmission and Processing), consisting of four research groups from the Faculty of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering, develops highly innovative solutions for the efficient processing of data in areas such as autonomous driving, image processing, artificial intelligence, radar technology and embedded systems.

The THA_ias (Institute for Agile Software Development) develops innovative software solutions for digitalization projects together with partners from industry and research. Agile system development methods are applied and further developed.

A semester abroad - an interesting experience

Add value to your studies by earning some of the required credit points during a semester abroad at one of our partner universities.

You can find all the necessary information on the websites of the faculty and the International Office.

Information for incomings

The qualification requirement for admission to the program is a Bachelor's degree in Information Systems from a university with above-average grades, or an equivalent university degree, usually with 7 semesters (210 ECTS points).

The selection of applicants is based on the grade of the Bachelor's degree. Currently, an average grade of 2.5 or better applies for the TH Augsburg.

Applicants with a Bachelor's degree who have less than 210 ECTS but at least 180 ECTS can also be admitted. They must acquire the credit points missing from the required 210 ECTS within the first year after enrolment through subsequent qualification.

For graduates of a Bachelor's degree program in Information Systems, the post-qualification can be achieved by taking elective subjects from the catalog of the Faculty of Computer Science for Bachelor's degree programs or other elective subjects from the Master's degree program. For graduates of other degree programs, the Examination Board may alternatively specify individual courses that must be taken for the post-qualification. Subjects that were already part of the first degree program cannot be taken.

The Business Information Systems degree program at the Faculty of Computer Science offers (compulsory) courses in German. Examinations are also held in German. German language skills of at least level B2 Common European Framework of Reference CEFR (equivalent to DSH-1 or TestDaF level 3) are therefore essential for a successful course of study.

The academic year begins in the summer semester. However, it is generally also possible to register for the winter semester. Please note the official deadlines for the application as well as the further information on applying for a study place and online application.

You must apply online! Please submit the required documents together with your online application. Incomplete application documents cannot be processed.
