Ledarskap i digitaliserade organisationer, masterprogram

Om utbildningen

## About the programme The main field of study is Work Integrated Learning, leading to a Master of Arts degree (120 credits) in WIL with a specialization in leadership in digitalized organizations. WIL is a pedagogical practice that fosters learning through the integration of theoretical knowledge and practical experience, derived from both higher education and the work environment. In the program, WIL specifically explores the relationship between working life and learning, encompassing conditions, organization, processes, content, forms, and consequences related to leadership. Through WIL, students gain expertise in leading, developing, and organizing diverse digitalized organizations. The program's progression is designed for students to gradually deepen their understanding of management in digitalized organizations. The degree program's pedagogical philosophy is based on the belief that students learn more effectively if knowledge and skills are applied. It is a philosophy that aligns well with WIL and business administration. At the same time, this philosophy harmonizes well with the challenges that come from change and transformation, specifically sustainable development. WIL, being a subject that is well suited for sustainable development, equips with a professional and norm-critical approach to address present and future challenges where sustainability is inherent. Various elements in courses incorporate sustainable practices where students learn about and contribute to sustainable initiatives such as energy efficiency, sustainable transport, and waste reduction. ## Courses that the study programme comprises - Foundations in Leadership and Information Systems - Research Internship - WIL in Theory and Practice - WIL: Reflection and Portfolio - Applied Research Methods - Contemporary leadership challenges in the face of digitalization - Thesis: WIL with a Specialization in Leadership in Digital Organizations ## International environment Students from around the globe come together in your programme to create a unique and international environment. The programme is fully taught in English, and you will study together with students from Sweden as well as international students from countries in Asia, Europe, Africa and North and South America. Many of your instructors also have international experience in both research and education. This will enhance your cultural experience and English-language proficiency. ## International internship or study abroad You can chose to spend the autumn semester of the second year of your studies abroad with a corporate and university partner or stay in Sweden and take our recommended elective courses. ## A strong job market Digitalisation drives development at an exponential speed; successful organisations need leaders who know how to implement organisational learning and flexibility. There is a high demand for leaders with these new skills in both the public and private sectors, including manufacturing, health care, education and commerce.
