"What I find particularly strong about this Master’s programme is that it isn’t just about AI tools or technology. Instead, you learn how to apply AI effectively in practice. So it’s not just about understanding how something works, but also how to involve others in the process. For me, the strength lies primarily in that combination of technology, communication, change management and practical application. You work on real-world issues and solutions that organisations can actually benefit from.I would recommend this master’s programme to students who want to do more than just write a few prompts or use ChatGPT. It’s really for people who want to bridge the gap between technology and people.
