New Study Programme Focussing on Sustainability

In autumn 2024, the St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences will expand its range of study programmes once more: next to business know-how, the part-time master programme Digital Management & Sustainability teaches future-oriented competences and focusses on “green” and socio-ecological topics such as climate change, circular economy, energy transition, and decarbonisation. Students learn how to combine digitalisation and sustainability in a purposeful way fostering green transformation, and how to strategically think companies anew. Applications for the upcoming academic year are still possible.

Competences in Digitalisation and Sustainability

This master degree programme, which is designed independent of a particular industry, attaches particular importance to conveying professional competences in the fields of management and strategy, digitalisation and innovation, and sustainability.

“The students benefit from a practice-oriented business education teaching profound digitalisation and sustainability competences that will be decisive for the future. Those competences already form an important foundation for a future-oriented management career in companies, institutions, or in the public sector. Our graduates will accompany and support companies of all sectors and sizes in the fields of ecological transition, innovation, sustainability, digitalisation, and green transformation”, explains Academic Director Monika Kovarova-Simecek.

Various possibilities to specialise allow students to shape their studies according to their personal interests, select individual focus areas, and gain an in-depth understanding of the fields of business process and strategy, CSR and ESN management, and digital project and innovation management.
