A particular focus is on the integration of science and practice in digitisation: Students learn to develop methodologically sound solutions to real problems in group work as early as their Bachelor's degree; Classic case studies, capstone projects and design seminars in cooperation with industry; In the Master’s degree, 9-month design thinking projects in cooperation with companies in industry; New teaching formats to build up the required methodological knowledge, e.g. software development team project

In addition to the university's central service centres for the promotion of study-related stays abroad, the KIT faculties for Computer Science and Economics have their own service facilities that coordinate the international cooperation between the faculties and serve as first contact points for subject-specific advice to KIT students and international exchange students. Students of the Business Informatics course are specifically supported and helped in the planning and implementation of their stay abroad.
