If at all possible, we would be grateful if you could circulate the 
information about the programme among your students.

The M.Sc. in Business Informatics centres on the combination of
technology and business. It aims to help organisations identify, apply
and develop the most beneficial ICT solutions, thus improving
an organisation's performance. This programme bridges the hard and soft
sides of ICT by utilising software engineering and computer science with 
information systems and business.

The programme (European MSc in Business Informatics) is designed to be
completed in one calendar year with the the opportunity to work on a
research project in another European country (e.g. in collaboration with
partnering Universities and/or companies). In fact the research project
abroad (duration of 3-4 months during the summer) provides great
opportunities to initiate student exchanges and collaborative (student)
research projects.

====================
The international focus of the European M.Sc. in Business Informatics
will make graduates particularly sought-after in the global ICT
marketplace. Graduates can expect to be recruited to a wide range of
positions such as Information Systems Consultant, Business Analyst,
Systems Analyst or IT Manager. Employing companies will include those

such as financial services firms, healthcare organisations, logistics

Four Months in a European Environment: Networking for the Future
