Exciting Insight into the World of Information Systems: Careers, Perspectives, and Fundamentals
The lecture "Introduction to Information Systems" at the Department of Information Systems offers first-semester students a comprehensive introduction to this exciting field of study. In each session, all professors and junior professors of the department present their respective areas of expertise, covering a wide range of topics.
After an introduction to the organizational details and the scientific thinking of information systems experts at the University of Münster, participants gain in-depth insights into fundamental concepts such as process, object, and organizational modeling.
A special highlight of the lecture is a panel discussion with successful alumni of the program. This year, Nina Herrmann, Fabian Müller, Sina Nordlohne, Marvin Teus, and Yannick Verhoeven shared their professional experiences and impressively explained how they applied the knowledge they gained during their studies in practice. Their current roles range from research as postdoctoral researchers at the University of Münster to positions at renowned companies such as the d.velop Group, viadee, zeb, and the Provinzial Insurance.
In addition to inspiring insights into their career paths, the alumni provided students with valuable tips and tricks – especially for internships – that can serve as a springboard for a successful career launch. The event once again highlighted how versatile and future-oriented information systems is.
