Our E-Business MSc combines business strategies, leading technology, entrepreneurship and organisational behaviour. You will learn how companies plan, implement and conduct electronic business with external and internal parties.
A modern e-business firm not only markets and sells online, but also integrates its sales systems with its internal systems in real-time.
This makes it possible to easily invoice and update the order status of clients. At the same time the systems have to interact with a vast network of partners who manufacture and dispatch the products to consumers. This success relies on a strong customer-centric organisational culture.
