Strategic Purpose Statement |
The aim of the Master of Business Informatics is to take an interdisciplinary approach in informatics and business innovation within a single qualification, including the core disciplines of enterprise innovation, IT service management, information security management, digital transformation, project management and business professionalism. This programme brings together business and IT services in both a New Zealand and global context. This is a 16-month, full-time programme of study designed for graduates with a Bachelor degree, postgraduate or graduate diploma or equivalent in a business-related or IT/computing subject from a recognised institution. It is suited for those seeking to: a) bridge the gap between a first degree and a career in business informatics that requires further qualifications and skills; b) build a firm foundation for further advanced level study towards a doctoral qualification in a similar discipline.
