Overview:
Our flagship Master’s degree in Digital Business offers cutting edge curricula based on new research in the field of digital business. There has been much hype around ‘digitalisation’ in the media and elsewhere, but while it is a very real part of our world, and applies to every aspect of business, there is no substantial body of knowledge available that is based on solid academic research. In other words, digital business is not a formal area of study. But that has now changed. Thanks to Wits Business School and BCX, who have taken the lead, the first ever Chair in Digital Business in Africa was established in 2016.The overarching vision of the Chair is to help South African business thrive in the digital era.
