🧭 Phase 1: Orientation (35 ECTS)

Purpose: Getting started and setting the foundation

The Orientation Phase ensures you are well-prepared to succeed in your MSc SIT journey. You’ll be introduced to Tomorrow University’s unique learning model, academic standards, and vibrant community of peers, faculty, and industry partners.

This phase consists of seven challenges, each lasting three weeks, with a final deliverable per challenge. Each challenge is worth 5 ECTS.

Orientation Challenges

  • Mission Identification – Define your purpose and learning goals.

  • Build Your Dream Team – Learn to collaborate effectively in diverse teams.

  • Sustainability Foundations – Explore the core principles of sustainability.

  • Intro to Entrepreneurship – Understand entrepreneurial thinking and innovation.

  • Technology Revolutions – Investigate the role of emerging technologies in transformation.

  • Introduction to Digital Strategy – Learn about digital transformation frameworks.

  • Orientation Group Challenge – Apply your learning in a collaborative project.

⚙️ Phase 2: Calibration (15 or 45 ECTS)

Purpose: Customising your learning journey through specialisation

The Calibration Phase allows you to tailor your studies based on your professional goals and interests.
Depending on your program version, you will complete either 90 ECTS or 120 ECTS in total:

  • MSc SIT (90 ECTS): Complete 1 Impact Certificate (IC)

  • MSc SIT (120 ECTS): Complete 3 Impact Certificates (ICs)

Each Impact Certificate is composed of three challenges and is worth 15 ECTS.
You can select from a variety of ICs to design your own specialisation or follow a predefined specialisation track, combining three ICs focused on a specific domain such as AI for Sustainability, Innovation & Technology Management, or Climate Action.
