Digital Business

Overview

Within this Digital Business programme from BI Norwegian Business School you will learn how digital technology can impact and change operational performance, work practices and the organisation of a business, and how to apply this knowledge to find new business opportunities or make strategic changes to existing businesses. modern organisations are replacing the traditional hierarchical structure, by focusing more on building networks and working in cross-functional teams with a high degree of autonomy. 

This requires a solid understanding of how digitalisation changes the way organisations are structured and how they operate. Therefore, the programme also aims to give you solid training in problem-solving and interdisciplinary activities, as practised in digital organisations. You will be working in teams with fellow students, and be challenged on your presentation and communication skills.

With changing demand for products and services, organisations are searching for employees with a digital mindset and digital capabilities in this transition. They need resources with a general understanding of business combined with practical and hands-on digital skills. But they also need specific expertise in areas such as change management, cyber security, design and application development.
