The degree course is clearly oriented towards business information systems as an independent discipline. The experience that business information systems specialists must have both thorough knowledge of business administration and a comprehensive basic knowledge of computer science is appropriately implemented through the contents of the degree course.
BI encompasses the integration of strategies, processes and technologies in order to generate success-critical information on status, potential and perspectives from fragmented, inhomogeneous company, market and competitor data in the environment of decision-support systems and to present this information in a suitable way for analysis, planning and control purposes.
It is a customer-oriented management approach with the aim of securing the company's success in the long term. CRM requires corporate cultural, organisational and technological foundations to align business processes with customer needs. The most important topic in information management is the support of strategy implementation and as well as the organisation of companies and their information processing.
Thus, a development or change of information systems often aims directly at the implementation of corporate goals. SCM Supply Chain Management represents a holistic also cross-company view of the business processes of logistics and production with the aim of optimally designing and operating these processes. Both customer requirements, such as short delivery times and high adherence to delivery dates, and internal company goals, such as low inventories and short throughput times, must be taken into account.
During their studies, students primarily build up conceptual skills and consolidate them in the solution of practical tasks, in practice-oriented projects and in integrated practical phases. The aim of the Bachelor's degree course in Business Information Systems is to prepare students for a responsible professional activity in information processing in companies and to provide them with the knowledge, skills and methods required for this.
