The degree programme is based on the Four Column Model with Computer Science, Business Administration, Business Informatics and Mathematics. Specialisations in Business Informatics include e.g. Logistics and ERP Systems (especially the SAP system). The course has a practice focus with its own practice semester. Most of the courses are seminar-type classes, with many practical exercises for specialisation. Professors and external lecturers contribute extensive practical experience.

A consecutive Master's degree course is possible via the "Business Informatics” specialisation with a Master's degree in Computer Science (MSc).

Dual-degree options for Bachelor/Master with France, England and New Zealand; International visiting lecturer programme at Bachelor’s/Master’s level; each year there are around 3 - 8 international visiting lecturers. Extensive English-taught course of study (approx. 50 credits each semester); Over 20 international partner universities for computer science and mathematics; Active international work placement programme and student exchange programme with very good credit-recognition options (approx. 40 outgoing students per year); International student projects.

The faculty has over a dozen laboratories in the field of Computer Science, some of them are pure Business Informatics laboratories (in particular to SAP), others have a high relation to business informatics (e.g. databases). All laboratories are equipped with computers, WiFi network is also fully developed so that students can use their own computers. The degree course benefits from the fact that there are four Computer Science courses in the Faculty. The logistics laboratory has an elaborate Fischer technology warehousing model that can be programmed via a control.

The Department of Computer Science and Mathematics is involved in numerous centres with a focus on research at OTH, which also include external practice partners through cooperations. Research focus areas in the field of Business Information Systems include Production Planning and Control. There is also the Innovation Centre for Production Logistics and Factory Planning (IPF) for this. A further research focus area lies in IT Controlling and Governance.

The topic of "Sustainability and Climate Justice" and "Diversity" are key points of the university development plan of the OTH. All activities are based on this. Business Information Systems is firmly interwoven with the other Computer Science degree courses of the faculty in terms of content and organisation. This guarantees a broad education and a wide range of (compulsory) elective subjects in addition to the required subject depth. The topic of sustainability is covered, for example, by the "Sustainability in Computer Science" module and by elective modules such as "Green IT".
