The module offers the students to learn the central contents and tasks of an integrated information management. In addition, the students receive a holistic insight into practical decision-making situations in IT management. The acquired knowledge enables the processing of real IT management tasks as you can find in practice.

As part of the seminar, students are given the opportunity to view the lecture content from an academic perspective on the one hand and to apply it based on practical case studies on the other. In this course, the focus is on the combination of theoretical specialized knowledge and solution-oriented application in a practical context in teamwork.

In each case, a group of students develops and presents a proposed solution for this case study, which is discussed with another group of students.
