Economics, Management and Computer Science

Program Director Emanuele Borgonovo

This BSc is a unique program, at the cutting edge of today’s digital revolution. It aims to train the new generation of digital talents, a generation in which the combination of quantitative skills and rigorous thinking is essential for success.

This program is for young talents who wish to play a leading role in the data driven era. The overall objective is to comprehend – and enable decision makers in firms and institutions to grasp – the strategic implications of quantitative information for economic, managerial and financial decisions.
New technologies and social media are revolutionizing the economy. Artificial intelligence and Big Data are changing decision and policy making and creating new business opportunities.

New professional roles are steadily emerging. The EU Coalition for digital jobs estimates 825,000 jobs in the digital economy by 2020 in Europe alone. Meeting this challenge requires talents that combine quantitative and computer science skills, with the rigorous thinking of the economic and management sciences.

It provides a solid grounding in quantitative disciplines (mathematics, statistics and informatics), combined with the teaching of economics, management and law, to acquire, organize and process data.

You will study in a small class of selected international students who can personalize their study plan by choosing electives in their preferred subjects, spending a semester abroad in one of the several prestigious partner universities of Bocconi, and taking part in seminars with partner companies that will provide insight from the real world.

Graduates will be able to comprehend and enable decision makers in firms and institutions to grasp the strategic implications of quantitative information for economic, managerial and financial decisions, while creating a professional profile that is increasingly requested on the job market.
