Information Technology has an enormous impact on companies and other organisations, and on society as a whole. This comes with the necessary technical challenges of implementing the IT solutions and getting them up and running, but also wider and more fundamental challenges, such as: what are the information needs in the first place? How can these best be met? How can resulting IT solutions be adopted in an organisation? How can their use be best introduced and managed? And how can we ensure compliance, with business requirements and legal standards for security and privacy?
For this Master's programme, the?Institute for Computing and (iCIS), which is part of the Faculty of Science, brings its world-class expertise in?security,?privacy, and?big data. Nijmegen School of Management brings its expertise in?Business Administration,?in particular onorganisational development and design (incl. technology implementation as a form of organisational design),? knowledge management, and innovation management.
