Strong focus on industry needs
We developed the Master’s in IT and Management in close cooperation with students and industry. Through market research and targeted surveys, we were able to build the programme around the knowledge and competences that top-performing IT professionals and IT managers need to address current IT issues effectively.
Work integrated learning
University West is Sweden’s leading university when it comes to Work Integrated Learning (WIL). The university was tasked with the development of WIL by the Swedish government 15+ years ago and continues to lead the field today. In this programme, you’ll earn an academic degree while also gaining practical work experience. Real-world projects at local companies and organisations will be an important part of your studies.
The majority of your courses combine academic theory and work practice in some way. For example, ideally, you’ll finish your chosen specialisation course and your master’s thesis project by completing real projects in cooperation with local industry partners. Students assume responsibility in working with programme staff to help secure these collaborations.
