Business Information Systems Engineering as an independent discipline has emerged from Business Administration (BWL) and Computer Science. It deals with current practical and scientific questions concerning computer-aided information processing in business. The focus is on the management of operationally relevant information. This includes in particular the planning, development, introduction and operation of enterprise software, but also the use of information technology for innovative business models (e.g. e-business, mobility services).

Partner Universities

There are further possibilities. Go Australia, for example, regularly organizes information events at the HFT, through which several students have already gone to Australian universities. Furthermore, there are contacts with the Australian research organization CSIRO, which is represented at numerous locations with different research focuses.

Prospects

In companies of all sectors, business information systems engineering specialists are employed especially at the interface of specialist applications and IT due to their knowledge in both business administration and information technology. Other typical employers are software and consulting companies that offer business software themselves or introduce it to other companies and organizations.
