Information Sciences
Master
This Master's degree teaches you how IT impacts organisations, both from a technical and management perspective. You will become an expert in explaining how organisations are able to deal with security and privacy issues.
The curriculum of this Master's programme has been developed in close collaboration with the Nijmegen School of Management. The programme will teach you to become a digital architect who can look beyond mere technical sides to ICT adoption in designing competitive business solutions. In addition to developing a strong basis in systems approaches to information and management, students will specialise either as a Security or privacy officer, or in Alignment and IT.
