Introduction
The MSc in Information Technology Management is designed to develop leaders who can align IT strategy with business goals.
Most IT professionals begin their IT career doing technical work. However, as they climb up the career ladder towards more senior roles such as IT project manager, solutions manager or IT Director, a broader set of management skills gets important. In short, these individuals need skills that will help them bridge the gap between IT and business.
As a student, you will gain a broad skill set, which will enable you to manage the development, acquisition, and operation of technology in a global, competitive environment. You will learn to evaluate technology in terms of its potential in the market, the risks involved to implement and manage change, and how to exploit innovation.
The program aims to create flexible individuals who can analyze business opportunities, operationalize technologies and innovate in ways of working.
