The Business Informatics study programme prepares students to become experts in the development of business processes and in the implementation and control of information systems and information and communication technology (IS/ICT). For that reason, students become familiar with the knowledge of economic disciplines as well as of applied informatics, both of which are needed for such jobs. In business, graduates operate as a bridge between corporate management (including the operative management that knows the details of business processes at the operative level) and ITC specialists.

The aim of the study is to create condition for successful employment as consultants, managers, and developers of business IS/ICT, as members of implementation teams, and as projects managers, and to provide students with quality background knowledge allowing the continuation of the studies at the Master’s degree level in the same or similar studies.

After successfully completing his/her studies the graduate is able to:

• understand thoroughly the link between businesses economics and corporate information needs
• develop and apply relevant methodology in tasks related to the analysis of current IS/ICT and to design modifications of IS/ICT based on corporate technical and conceptual information needs
• propose the development of IS/ICT and participate in managing IS/ICT
• apply the general methods of scientific work
• communicate about profession-related issues in a global language
• to understand the theoretical background of business management and applied informatics at a level that will enable him/her to continue in the same or similar master study
• to effectively search and process information.
• to formulate their ideas into an academic text.

Graduates can take part in the analysis of the economic processes and of the specific system requirements when customizing information systems. They can work as leaders of smaller information system projects and as workers supporting the operation of IT economic functions.

Practice is not compulsory, but only an optional part of the study, through the choice of the course "Traineeship".

Bachelor thesis is a professional work which uses exact scientific methods and tools for data collection and analysis and interpretation of results. When creating the work, it is necessary to use the knowledge gained during the bachelor study. The thesis covers business informatics, which means that there must be two disciplines in the field - applied computer science and business management. The main part of the bachelor thesis is the design part, representing the student's proposed solution (or alternative solution) of the chosen problem. Proposals are substantiated and evaluated in their context, including economic evaluation. Instructions for its processing and other information can be found in the ESF Student Manual which is available on http://www.econ.muni.cz/zaverecna-prace.

The graduates of the branch have the possibility to continue with the follow-up master study program Business management.
