Description

E-business focuses on the opportunities that IT can provide when private and public organisations interact with their costumers, clients or stakeholders. You will learn to understand and develop IT-based concepts that match the needs of the users, but also how to implement and commercialize them. This allows you to create services, apps and other solutions that support the strategy and desired goal for both companies and society at large.

E-business is primarily a programme, which links practical business understanding with an understanding of different types of digital platforms for trade, information, and communication - often with a focus on interaction.

This programme teaches you to develop and work with digital solutions - all very different, however, with the common characteristic that the user is put first. While IT solutions in other contexts often are about doing things faster or cheaper, E-business is also about doing something, which has not been done before - or make existing solutions better. That is how E-business adds value.

Read more about the programme on http://www.cbs.dk/en/study/graduate/e-business

Career Opportunities

E-business graduates often cover a broad scope of IT-related tasks and responsibilities. They use their competences within project management, management, organisation, and business to a large extent. Some graduates work in E-business consultancy.

Description

By working with measurements of cost, performance and risk, you will learn to identify strategic challenges within organisations, and to design the proper course of action and incentive structures to respond to them. This understanding of numbers and their organisational role will facilitate the implementation of company strategy and value creation.

The focus of the programme is on driving the company towards its goals by making its strategy operational. There is a big difference between making a strategy and making it happen. Often this process is made difficult by vaguely defined goals or differences in perception of the strategy throughout the organisation.  You will learn how to deal with these challenges by interpreting the strategy, breaking it down into smaller parts and making the goals concrete and measurable.
