Master of Science in Business Engineering (Operations Management)
A business engineer has a thorough knowledge of the discipline of business administration and technology, i.e. technological products and processes. In this respect, a business engineer may act as a mediator between technical and business economic positions to conduct data analysis, modelling and decision-making. He/she is trained to develop and implement business solutions starting from a model to a business process and to develop and implement solutions for business problems. Also, he/she models the real business situation in an (abstract) presentation, takes relevant decisions based on the model and translates these decisions into business processes.
