Enterprise architecture analyzes and implements business strategies to optimize the company's processes and IT application systems. Enterprise architects have a comprehensive overview of all applications and processes as well as the information flows between the teams.

The core competencies of enterprise architecture specialists in the field of IT are the management support of business and IT as well as the linking of operations with corporate strategy. The most important skills of enterprise architects are systemic and networked thinking, target group-oriented communication and a constant overview of the big picture.

You are admitted to further training as an enterprise architect, such as the CAS Enterprise Architecture IT FH, if you have completed a tertiary-level education (HF, FH, Uni, ETH) in computer science (programming / software development) or business (e.g. business analysis) and have two years of professional experience - preferably in a management position. However, a Sur-Dossier is possible.

A CAS in Enterprise Architecture Management IT usually lasts one semester and is completed with a Certificate of Advanced Studies from the university. This corresponds to at least 10 ECTS (credit points). However, please contact the individual universities for detailed information.
