New technologies are revolutionizing every aspect of business - from banking and finance to agriculture and healthcare, no industry has been left untouched. Successful businesses of the future will be digitally advanced businesses.

This subject will prepare you for a fast-evolving world where 'disruptive' digital technologies – such as big data, mobile and gamification – have changed the rules of the game when it comes to business operations, marketing and customer service.

By studying digital business at the University of Waikato, you'll be introduced to a wide range of business technologies that today's managers need to understand.

And you'll develop the ideal blend of managerial, business and IT skills required to pursue a career as a tech-savvy manager.

In such roles, you're likely to be working on digital transformation projects with web developers, UX designers and analysts to introduce new technologies that offer superior business performance.
