orange quotation mark symbolYou want to shape the future with technology, but pure IT is too technical for you and business studies too dry? What if you could combine the two – creatively, economically and in a next-level degree program setting? Then Information Systems 2.0 is exactly your place to be!

What we value

‣ Your studies, your skills

× Real challenges, real experience: Whether BMW, Google or local companies – you work on real projects and learn what really counts.

× Learning by doing: With us, you don't learn in a large lecture hall, but hack directly into real projects. Whether 3D printing or AI – you work with cool tools and develop innovative solutions.

× Creativity as fuel: Forget rigid learning plans and bulimic learning. You are a person with ideas and use your creativity to develop new products and business models.

× Mindfulness included: Technology is important, but people make the difference. That's why we also teach you how to motivate teams and successfully shape change.

× Bye-bye, exams: we focus on skills. That's why teamwork, convincing concepts, clever presentations and cool prototypes count for us. Exams are so 2018.


‣ Your studies, your content

‣ Your studies, your life

Forget overloaded timetables and the constant struggle between studies, job and free time as in conventional degree programs. Our concept is different:

📌 Focus instead of chaos: In three-week modules, you dive deep into a topic – without distraction.

🕒 Reliable lecture times: Three mornings a week are reserved for lectures – the rest of the time is yours! Work, hobbies, relax? The choice is yours.

🎯 Continuous assessment: Each module concludes with a project or practical assignment – no exam phases, no bulimic learning. And vacations remain vacations.

Ahoy hoi! I'm Christian, your degree program coordinator for Information Systems 2.0🫰

Of course, I'm exaggerating a little when I say that nothing works here without me – but I'm definitely responsible for the good atmosphere and personal support! As a humanities and cultural scientist among the geeks and nerds, I know that technology is only as good as the people who use it.

That is why we focus on individual development. We know that the combination of professional expertise and personal growth is the key to successful solutions for the future.

This view has motivated us to create Information Systems 2.0. Convince yourself of our passion for digital innovation – for example, when I open our MakerSpace in Kronach for you with my RFID chip implanted in my hand 🤙

Prof. Dr. Johannes Stübinger

A person with glasses is smiling widely, wearing a black turtleneck sweater against a plain background, perhaps reflecting the classic style of Hochschule Coburg.

Hey guys! 👋 I'm Johannes, your program director for Information Systems 2.0.

I actually come from a math background – sounds nerdy? Don't worry, we don't spend hours on derivatives, integrals or equations here. In my modules, it's all a means to an end – we solve real practical problems with artificial intelligence and data science. Sounds better, doesn't it?

Never programmed before? No problem! 80% of first-year students start like this. You learn the basics using company projects, and later we use smart tools like ChatGPT and co. to get the most out of it.

Do you have any questions? Just come to my lecture or write to me directly! I look forward to it.

P.S. Don't bother with "Prof. Dr. Stübinger", okay? Mutual respect has nothing to do with titles. Just call me Johannes! 😎

Living and working at the Lucas Cranach Campus

Lucas Cranach Campus

Lucas Cranach the Elder, who gave his name to the campus, stands for precisely this special spirit: his spirit of innovation should inspire our students. Over the next few years, the Lucas Cranach Campus will be home to degree courses and transfer institutes from various universities working on the innovations of the future. Further information about the Lucas Cranach Campus can be found here.

House hunting

Do you need help finding accommodation? Whether it's a single apartment, shared flat or family apartment. Simply send an e-mail to info@lcc-kc.de, subject "Housing for students" and be sure to include your telephone number.

Our degree program is located at the Lucas-Cranach-Campus Kronach. The newly created campus in the heart of the city of Kronach offers you learning, tinkering, living and meeting friends – all in the immediate vicinity.

Here you can meet people, question existing solutions, think about new things and actively shape them.

Tinkering with your product ideas, repairing a broken toaster or simply meeting new people – all this and much more is possible in the LCC FabLab on campus.

FAQ

How programming-heavy is the course?

Programming is part of the course, but not an end in itself.
You learn programming in a practical way and without prior knowledge in order to understand and implement digital solutions – not to become a pure software developer.

How much math is really involved?

The math part is application-oriented.
Mathematics is used where it makes sense for data, IT and business. Not heavily theoretical university math, but understanding and application.
If you can do the rule of three, then you're qualified:)

How does Information Systems 2.0 differ from conventional WI?

Information Systems 2.0 is project and practice-oriented. The focus is not on memorizing content, but on the targeted development of skills for the digital working world.

In the sequential study program, you focus on one topic at a time and apply your knowledge directly to specific projects. This is less about in-depth specialist knowledge in individual technologies and more about a broad understanding of digital technologies, innovative methods and their application in a corporate context. Programming is part of this, but is not the main focus – nor are classic ERP or SAP specializations.

The course is feedback-oriented and is constantly evolving. Students' experiences and feedback are actively incorporated into the design of the content. The focus is on you – with your learning path, your ideas and your personal development.

Can I do a semester abroad?

In any case! We expressly support stays abroad. In addition to partner universities, we also look individually at where and how you can best integrate your trip abroad into your studies. You can find more information here.

How does the dual study program work? How do I find my practical company?

You have two options here:

  • Combined study program: You combine your Bachelor's degree with an IHK vocational training course – two degrees in one go.

  • Study with in-depth practical experience: You concentrate on the Bachelor's degree, but spend the lecture-free periods and the practical semester in the company.

Your path to an internship partner You look for your internship independently, just like a normal job search. We will support you with our network – just contact us.

And don't worry: you don't have to have your company at the start of your studies, you can also start "normally" and then switch to the dual option.
