My decision to study Project Management and IT was largely due to a personal interest in the topics. The combination of these two - now ubiquitous - topics seemed particularly attractive to me with a view to my future career. In view of the ongoing digitalisation of the economy and society, this course of studies also represents an excellent investment in my own skills from my point of view.
