The Master program on Service Design and Engineering (SDE) is a two-year Master program organized in the context of the EIT Digital Labs Master School. It provides both the technical competence for the design and engineering of services and skills in the area of entrepreneurship and innovation.
The first year is common for all SDE students and consists of technical courses in areas important for SDE (e.g., information systems, distributed systems, business process management and software engineering). It also includes an extensive module on entrepreneurship and innovation.
For the second year, you choose one of the following specializations: Mobile Services, Service-oriented Business Process Management, Service-oriented Social Informatics, and Distributed Service Systems.
A distinctive feature of the program is that you study at two universities in two different countries. The first year is offered at Aalto University (Finland). The university at which you do the second-year specialization, depends on the specialization of your choice:
- The specialization on Mobile Services is offered by Aalto University.
- The specialization on Service-oriented Business Process Management is offered by Eindhoven University of Technology.
- The specialization on Service-oriented Social Informatics is offered by University of Trento.
- The specialization on Distributed Service Systems is offered by a collaboration of two universities in Budapest.
The university at which you do the first year of the program is called the entry point; the university at which you do the second year specialization is called the exit point.
