Professor Thesmann has written the current textbook on introductory business informatics. This textbook serves as the basis for our lectures on introduction to business informatics, which are taught in German for all bachelor's degree programmes at the Business School. We now also offer the lecture in English for some degree programmes at the Business School. Prof. Dr. Thesmann coordinates the profile focus on the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in companies, intelligent user interfaces and user interface design with artificial intelligence in the Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes.

Prof. Dr. Manuel Fritz has been Professor of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) and Data-Driven Business Transformation in the Department of Business Informatics since the winter semester 2025/26. As a data strategist from industry, he combines the areas of data strategy, data products, MLOps and AI lifecycle management with the aim of strategically and scalably anchoring artificial intelligence (AI) in companies. In teaching and research, he addresses the question of how companies can successfully transform themselves by purposefully building data-driven value chains – from data sources to AI models to productive AI solutions. His work focuses on practical AI applications in industry, in particular the integration of (generative) AI into operational processes, governance and transparency in AI systems, and the development of effective data and AI architectures.
