Our graduates work as project managers, business analysts, enterprise architects, citizen developers, consultants, or trainers, for example. These professions are in high demand in practice and are above-average in terms of pay. Medium- and long-term prospects include job profiles such as Chief Digital Officer (CDO), Chief Information Officer (CIO), and even Chief Executive Officer (CEO).

The formal framework for the program is regulated by the study and examination regulations (SPO). At Pforzheim University, these are divided into two main parts. The first part contains general regulations for the entire university. The second part refers to the course content of the degree programs.
