Executive Master of Information Management and Digital Transformations (MIMDT)

This part-time Executive Master of Information Management & Digital Transformations (MIMDT) is made up of four core modules and four supplementary modules. The program is fully modular by design. You can choose to attend individual modules or the entire program. Depending on when you start, it is possible to complete the full program in 19 to 29 months. TIAS is also flexible in offering custom options, allowing you to complete elements of the program in your preferred sequence and at your own speed. 

Each module is preceded by a two-hour online introductory lecture by the program’s Academic Director. This is also an opportunity to present your own organization’s dilemmas for discussion during the in-person lectures to follow. 

These lectures take place at our campus in Tilburg. They are taught by experienced lecturers from universities, business and public organizations many of whom have international experience. They help you make connections between scientific models and your own practice.

For a week, we will be visiting companies and universities abroad. This will give you a behind-the-scenes look and the opportunity to engage in discussions with executive and senior managers.

Module 3: Capita Selecta 

You conduct research on digital transformation within your own organization. This module can be used as preparation for your final project, which allows you to dive deep into a relevant topic for your organization. 

Module 4: Final Project 

The final project is an individual assignment that is likely done within your own organization. It allows you to select a topic that is relevant for you, your organization and the scientific community. The project can be analytic, theoretical, empirical or involve design. You will present your results in a report. The final evaluation of the project work is based on the written document and its oral defense. The final report is presented before the examination committee. Members of the committee are the First Supervisor supplemented with two members.
