Business Informatics Bachelor (UAS): Experiences Course Director Dr. Niklaus Storz of Kalaidos University of Applied Sciences - wide range of career options and good earning potential

Who are you and what does your career look like?

My work at Kalaidos University of Applied Sciences includes overall responsibility for the content and operations of the Master of Science degree program portfolio. On the other hand, I am in charge of the subject area of computer science in the Prorectorate for Education, where I am also responsible for the corresponding degree programs.
I myself have already had a number of experiences in my life, all of which have been very different. After finishing high school, I spent several years as a professional classical musician. During this time, I also completed two Master's degrees in music. I then turned to the business sector and worked in management consulting and banking for a few years. Prior to or parallel to this professional activity, I completed a Master's degree and a doctorate at the University of St. Gallen. I can therefore look back on several university degrees, some of which I completed while working. Accordingly, I know the needs of our working students very well and try to meet them in the best possible way with our curricula and the organizational orientation of our courses.
