Om Master i it-ledelse på IT-Universitetet

Master i it-ledelse er en specialiseret lederuddannelse med fokus på it og digitalisering, som gør dig i stand til både at forstå og lede komplekse, strategiske processer, der involverer it, digitalisering og digital forandring.

Master i it-ledelse er et individuelt udviklingsforløb, hvor du videreudvikler din faglige identitet til at stå i spidsen for digital transformation.

Uddannelsen supplerer derved din lederprofil med en akademisk profil, der giver forståelse for og de nødvendige kompetencer til at drive digital forandring, lede it og tage strategiske beslutninger i komplekse organisatoriske systemer.

Ansøgning om funding

Der er gode muligheder for at søge økonomisk støtte til efteruddannelser som Master i it-ledelse.

Erfaringsmæssigt kan der søges op til 50.000 pr. semester afhængigt af fonden. Fondene nævnt nedenfor har meget forskellige rammer, ansøgningsdeadlines, særpuljer og ansøgningsprocedurer. Derfor anbefaler vi, at du kontakter fondene for specifik vejledning og søger viden i din egen organisation i god tid, inden ansøgningsperioderne åbner.

Hos nogle fonde er det i praksis din leder, der indsender din ansøgning i fondenes digitale ansøgningssystem. Vi anbefaler derfor også, at du og din leder forbereder jer i fællesskab, da der er meget stor søgning på fondsmidlerne. Tildeles der efter ”først-til-mølle” kan selv de største puljer være tildelt allerede en 20-30 minutter efter ansøgningsportalen er åbnet.

Bruttolønsordning
En anden finansieringsmulighed kan være f.eks. bruttolønsordning. En af fordelene ved en bruttolønsordning er, at din skat er med til at finansiere udgiften, så det ikke bliver så dyrt, som hvis du selv skal betale for hele uddannelsen. Undersøg mulighederne i din organisation i god tid.

Inaugural lecture by Professor Thomas Binder

Fri, 20 Jun 2025 11:49:31 GMT

Written 2 June, 2025 07:49 by Mette Strange Mortensen

For Professor Thomas Binder it is an important part of his work as a researcher that he is also a teacher and is in contact with the digital designers of the future. Design emerges in the interaction between people and the world around them. Therefore, he wants to inspire students to connect to the world they are going to work in rather than trying to reinvent it.

“I find it exciting to educate young people in digital design and to contribute to shaping an important professional field that is constantly evolving. The university should be a place where we not only pass on what we already know but also serve as a laboratory for exploring new ways of doing things. I see the students as important participants in that process. Therefore, as researchers and educators, we must also engage with all the ‘crooked’ problems in the world," says Thomas Binder, "when we educate young designers, it is important that they understand that, as designers, we are not meant to clear the table and invent something entirely new. We must connect with everything that is already in motion and help those who are in the midst of that movement to find their footing amidst all the fluidity and change.”

Just a five-minute walk from the IT University lies the district of Sønderbro, which is currently undergoing urban renewal, to which Thomas Binder is also contributing. Here, he has the opportunity to bring design and design culture out into the real world, engaging directly with life beyond the university.

“Design culture only improves by moving beyond the university as a closed workshop. It must connect with the world around it. I’m drawing on that right now, as I’m involved in a project focused on the urban renewal of Sønderbro. A great deal is happening there at the moment in terms of sustainability and urban development. I believe it’s important that we, as a university, step out and take part in the life of the city. We are situated in a city where so much is going on. Many things are in motion and complex, and here we can contribute — and in doing so, deepen our own knowledge and professional understanding,” says Thomas Binder.

He is now a professor at ITU, where he will give his inaugural lecture on 19 June 2025 at 14:30 in Auditorium 0. The lecture is entitled “What design can do and how it matters”.

"My lecture will focus on my perspective on design. To me, design is about playing with ideas of how the world could be. Design does not dictate how the world should be arranged, but it can open a space where we are allowed to speculate. Design plays an important role by revealing possibilities, but it should not attempt to carve those possibilities in stone. On the contrary, an open approach to design can make the world more liveable," says Thomas Binder about his inaugural lecture.

Bringing together a technical background and design research

Thomas Binder has a past at DTU, and the Danish design schools, respectively in Copenhagen and Kolding, where he was, among other things, Head of Center for Design Research and was in charge of helping the design schools’ efforts to become research-based.

This summer Thomas Binder has been at ITU for two years, and here, he truly gets the opportunity to combine his technical background with design research.

"I’ve been on a journey from the technical to more purely design-oriented work, and now I have the chance to draw on both. It’s exciting to have worked with design research, and it’s a privilege to now return to the field of interaction design, where ITU offers a vibrant research environment with a great deal to contribute," says Thomas Binder.

Inaugural lecture by Professor Veronika Cheplygina

Wed, 18 Jun 2025 15:13:18 GMT

Veronika Cheplygina improves the field of machine learning through meta-research

On 10 June 2025 at 14:30, Professor Veronika Cheplygina will present her inaugural lecture in Auditorium 0 at the IT University of Copenhagen. The lecture is entitled: “Not real research”.

Veronika Cheplygina About ITU Events

Written 26 May, 2025 07:37 by Mette Strange Mortensen

Exactly 10 years after she defended her PhD, Veronika Cheplygina will give her inaugural lecture as professor at the IT University of Copenhagen. She started her academic career in machine learning, but already during her PhD she started questioning the way research was done and wondered if research was just optimised for publication.

“My PhD research was about specific types of machine learning, which could be used for several applications, including medical imaging, which I focused on after my PhD. While reading papers about it, I saw various patterns about how people were doing research. For example, I saw that people were introducing essentially the same method but calling it something entirely different, perhaps for the sake of novelty”, says Veronika Cheplygina, “so you would never find the literature on both if you didn't try to search for synonyms, or more broadly, look at the assumptions used to design a method. What I was noticing was these problems with how the research might be optimised for publication rather than for generalisable results.”

She started looking further into this and similar phenomena and wrote several survey papers about this. In recent years, her research has shifted towards research on what people are investigating and why. For example, she is interested in what kind of data people use and if the quality of the data and the evaluation practices actually justify the conclusions of the research.

“What I find interesting about my work is that not a lot of people want to work with data. I think this is in part because of the emphasis placed on novelty and state-of-the-art results when publishing at conferences. Essentially, you can download some publicly available data, and without understanding the data, immediately get started with optimizing your method until you get good results. I guess it is more difficult to look across multiple different studies and see if the conclusions are the same,” says Veronika Cheplygina, “and this is also a more difficult way to publication, than introducing a novel method. I find it interesting that people do agree that such studies are important, but that they often do not do it”.

Veronika Cheplygina’s inaugural lecture will be held on 10 June 2025 at 14:30 in Auditorium 0 at the IT University of Copenhagen. The lecture is entitled: “Not real research”. This is a reference to the reception of the work that Veronika Cheplygina does.

“In a previous job I was asked when I was going to start doing real research. The implication was that writing surveys instead of proposing novel methods was not real research. It really left an impression,” says Veronika Cheplygina.

Her “not real research” has now made her a professor at ITU. However, she is not afraid to share when she is failing. Most researchers share when they get a new grant or publish in big journals. So does Veronika Cheplygina, but she also talks about all the papers, promotions and grants she did not get:

“I mean researchers are just people. So, it doesn't make sense to me to pretend to be like this person on the pedestal,” says Veronika Cheplygina, “as a postdoc I saw that a Professor at Princeton University shared a CV of failures, and thought at that point, that mine was already longer. When I shared it, I got so many positive responses. It somehow felt more impactful than publishing a paper that maybe ten people would read. I continued updating it and have also interviewed other researchers on their failures.”

Looking into diversity in teams and algorithms

Even though Veronika Cheplygina’s research has been called not “real”, and she has published her failures, she has also managed to succeed. She came to ITU in 2021 during the COVID lockdown and for the first six months had to do her research from home. This gave her time to read and write a lot of research about research. This research recently landed her a grant from the Novo Nordisk Foundation.

“I am doing a project called CHEeTAh: CHallenges of Evaluating Teams and Algorithms, where my team and I are investigating how the practice of machine learning competitions, often hosted at conferences or in education, could potentially exclude researchers and students who are not eager to compete or simply do not have the resources to do so. This project aims to explore inclusive ways of organizing machine learning competitions by investigating whether competitions that require algorithms to succeed on multiple evaluation metrics can lead to better algorithms and more diverse teams,” says Veronika Cheplygina, “I hope that this project will also leads to tools that can be used at conferences or in classrooms. I am not only finding problems, I am also proposing solutions.”

Since January 1, 2025, Anna Vallgårda was appointed Professor at ITU.

Professor Anna Vallgårda will give her inaugural lecture on May 09, 14:30 – 16.00 PM at the IT University of Copenhagen, Rued Langgaards Vej 7, Auditorium 0 (zero). The lecture is followed by a reception at the first-floor repos of RLV.

Title: Radical Redesign of Care Technologies

Abstract:

Despite its promise of life improvements and optimizations, we see how the increased undisclosed and complex use and misuse of data fosters personal and societal mistrust. The algorithmic designs on social media help generate societal divergence and social isolation. The increased cyborg existence characterized by self-tracking and medical technologies creates an intimate dependence on the norms embedded in their designs. For many, this dependence causes stress, rumination, low self-esteem, and increased vulnerability. On top of this comes the highly problematic ecological footprint that the mass consumption of digital devices and services has on our planet. Design research forms a crucial counterweight in not just critiquing current trajectories but in demonstrating alternative possible futures by radically redesigning existing solutions.

The first body of work demonstrates a move from treating the user as a matter of fact - or as a collection of data points - to treating the user with a matter of compassion. In a series of designs, we address mental and social well-being by poking into our relations with others and ourselves. Specifically, these designs foster compassionate engagements in contexts of abortion, pregnancy, ovulation, and premenstrual disorders.

The second body of work concerns care technologies designed for people with chronic illnesses. Here, I challenge the figure of the user as a recipient of the design, arguing that people living with these chronic conditions are always more than users and disregarding this might cause harm. We all attune differently to the world around us, including the technologies we live with, and we, therefore, need a much larger variety in the designs of care technology. To achieve this, I propose a deeply situated design approach where the designer dwells in individual diversities and interprets this into a range of designs.

Inaugural lecture by Professor Vasilis Galis

Tue, 08 Apr 2025 12:51:38 GMT

Written 13 March, 2025 09:18 by Mette Strange Mortensen

Riding the metro in Athens, on his way to have coffee with a friend, Vasilis Galis found his research field and motivation. His friend was wheelchair-bound and living in a city that is quite inaccessible to wheelchair users. But the Athens metro was accessible, even for people in wheelchairs, and they got to talk about this. “When I take the metro, it feels like my wheelchair disappears,” said his friend Nikos, and it made Vasilis Galis think about his own privileges as an able-bodied person. “This experience made me want to do research that matters to society, against the dictatorship of the normal, as a refusal to the current, against dead time,” says Professor Vasilis Galis.

Vasilis Galis started his research career as a PhD student in the field of economics and innovation, but it did not feel quite right until that day on the metro with his friend.

“I wanted to conduct research about something that had an impact on and for social groups, who are often overlooked and marginalised. I needed my research to be in closer contact with society than it was when I first started my PhD,” says Vasilis Galis.

On 28 March 2025 at 14:30 Vasilis Galis will present his inaugural lecture entitled “Research against dead time”.

“My inaugural lecture will reflect my research. I want my research to go a bit outside of the prism of the market, without compromising on the academic standards. I think a lot of research focuses on how to create value for the industry, but I want my research to focus on creating value for societal and grassroot movements,” says Vasilis Galis.

Vasilis Galis’ research has mainly revolved around how technical and digitalization projects affect social groups: migrants, people with disabilities, or Indigenous populations, amongst others.

“My research is in epistemic solidarity with social groups who are often marginalised, and I try to bring their perspectives forward without becoming an avant-garde translator of their interests,” says Vasilis Galis, “I hope my research will have an impact in the real world. I try to make sure that my results do not just stay in academia but come back to the people associated with it.”

Eleven years ago, Vasilis Galis came to ITU. While being here his research has had an increased focus on how the public sector in Denmark is being digitalized and especially the police and their use of surveillance.

“I have recently completed a research project on the digitalisation of the Danish police. Digitalisation appears like a necessity for both the government and the media, but it is not as straight forward as it seems or just a technical matter. Through my research, I want to create awareness about e.g. surveillance, the involvement of big tech in critical sections of the state, such as law enforcement, and the outsourcing of police infrastructure. I think people should be aware of how police work affects them, and how data is used by the police, the migration authorities, in courts and so on” says Vasilis Galis:

“This is especially timely and important in a volatile world as ours. My hope is that my research can be used against contemporary technopolitical totalitarianism.”

The Robots are Here: Navigating the Generative AI Revolution in Computing...

Mon, 12 Feb 2024 14:27:39 GMT

SPEAKER:
- Brett Becker, University College Dublin

Abstract:
Recent breakthroughs in deep learning have led to the emergence of generative AI models that exhibit extraordinary performance at producing human-like outputs. Using only simple input prompts, it is possible to generate novel text, images, video, music, and source code, as well as tackle tasks such as answering questions and translating and summarising text. However, the potential for these models to impact computing education practice is only just beginning to be explored. For example, novices learning to code can now use free tools that automatically suggest solutions to programming exercises and assignments; yet these tools were not designed with novices in mind and little to nothing is known about how they will impact learning. Furthermore, much attention has focused on the immediate challenges these models present, such as academic integrity concerns. It seems that even in the AI-era a pending apocalypse sells better than a promising renaissance. Generative AI will likely play an increasing role in people’s lives in the reasonably foreseeable future. Model performance seems set to continue accelerating while novel uses and new possibilities multiply. Given this, we should devote just as much effort to identifying and exploiting new opportunities as we do to identifying and mitigating challenges. In this talk, we begin by discussing several concrete and research-backed opportunities for computing educators. Many of these have already shown great promise in positively impacting current practice. We then discuss more short- to medium-term possibilities in areas such as student recruitment, and curricular changes. Finally – against our better judgement – we speculate over the longer-term, including rethinking the very fundamentals of the practice of teaching introductory and advanced computing courses. In these discussions we suggest potential research questions and directions. Although making remotely accurate predictions in such a fast-changing landscape is foolhardy, we believe that now is the time to explore and embrace opportunities to help make positive change in as many computing classrooms as possible.

Felienne Hermans: The Programmer’s Brain and Hedy

Mon, 16 Oct 2023 13:03:22 GMT

Felienne Hermans is full professor of Computer Science Education at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.

Felienne is the author of the 2021 book The Programmer's Brain, a very readable and highly insightful introduction to the cognitive science behind how human brains learn programming. Why is programming hard to learn, and what can we do about that, both as learners and teachers? We recommended this for everyone, but it is particularly useful for those who just started to learn programming, as well as people who try to teach others.

Felienne’s most recent project is Hedy, a programming language aimed at beginners – including children – and that realises many of the insights from The programmer’s brain about why programming is hard to learn. Hedy is a “real” programming language in that it is unapologetically text-based, but the language design is gradual, progressing from an extremely lenient but incomplete language to a nontrivial subset of Python.

The language is under active development and constantly exposed to feedback from children who actually learn programming. We find this brilliant and are particularly impressed by the possibility of Hedy to teach some programming to everyone, rather than all programming to some people.

Blockchain and IP Law – A Match Made in Heaven or Hell?

Wed, 08 Mar 2023 13:45:21 GMT

Digital ulighed: Hvordan kommer vi den til livs?

Wed, 08 Mar 2023 13:31:05 GMT

De senere års danske digitaliseringsstrategier har fokuseret på at effektivisere borgerens møde med velfærdsstaten gennem selvbetjeningsløsninger på stort set alle områder: Sociale ydelser, offentlige skoler og sundhedspleje. I den sammenhæng kan det lyde som en overvældende succes at ca. 90% af danskerne er ’digitale’, mens det ’kun’ er ca. 10% der er fritaget for at kommunikere med det offentlige via digitale platforme. Denne debat fokuserer på den store masse, de 90%, og spørger hvad det flotte tal gemmer. For hvad kræver det egentlig at være selv-betjent? Forskningen viser at mange er udfordrede i at tilgå digitale velfærdsløsninger. Årsagerne er mange og varierede. Nogle kræver omfattende kommunikativ hjælp fra andre mennesker, andre har ikke adgang til opdateret teknologi. Vi er i særlig grad interesserede i de uformelle velfærdsarbejdere, der muliggør digitaliseringen. Hvem er de og hvordan kan det være at de pålægges ansvar af statens digitalisering. Center for Digital Velfærd (ITU) inviterer til en snak om digital ulighed anno 2021 og hvordan den bliver bedre for alle, uanset digitale evner.

Computer science education research has seen tremendous growth and professionalisation in recent years, leading to improved teaching methods and a better understanding of how to help students succeed in introductory programming courses. This seminar examines a major rework of Introductory Programming (B-SWU) and discusses the implications of those changes from both student and teacher perspectives. Sebastian details the changes implemented and an analysis of the outcome in terms of student feedback, observations, and grades. Based on these findings, I provide recommendations for other introductory programming courses and outline future areas in need of improvement.

MEET THE LAB: IXD LAB

Wed, 21 Dec 2022 11:09:07 GMT

The IxD Lab is a place where we build ideas.

In the IxD lab we explore how interactive systems can be designed, choreographed, and made more responsive and humane. We draw from unusual material practices. We develop new understandings that inspires new design methods. We research speculative futures through physical things and create new computational expressions.

The IxD Lab is open to any researcher at the ITU who is looking to build stuff as part of their research. The lab also hosts a variety of in-house and external events as means to exchange knowledge of new technologies and forms of interaction.

The IxD Lab offers basic tools for making physical artefacts, like 3D printers, a laser cutters, sewing machines, tools for woodwork, etc. There is also a basic stock of materials like acrylics, fabrics, wood in various formats, and electronics like Arduino boards, sensors, LEDs etc.

The IxD lab can be found at 5A58 and you can always contact us, if you want to know more about IxD lab, or want to use some of our facilities.

If you have any questions please contact the Lab Manager Halfdan Mouritzen: halm@itu.dk

Den datadrevne virksomhed

Tue, 29 Nov 2022 15:23:10 GMT

"Jeg er af den opfattelse, at data er vigtige, men det er ikke det eneste, der er vigtigt. Data indgår med en række andre faktorer, som gør at digitalisering kan lykkes".

Digitalt lederskab handler om dine kompetencer både som leder og som medarbejder. Du får en indsigt i, hvordan virksomheder drives og får en større forståelse for, hvordan digitalisering skaber værdi for forretningen. Det giver en praktisk forståelse af digitaliseringsudfordringerne for virksomheden.

Bliv klogere på den datadrevne virksomhed og digitaliseringens muligheder. I denne video deler chefkonsulent ved Forsvarsministeriet og ekstern lektor ved IT-Universitetet, Jimmy Kevin Pedersen sit perspektiv på den datadrevne organisation og betydningen data og en række andre elementer har for digitaliseringen.

meget mere om forløbet på uddannelsen, og hvorfor den kan være relevant for dig.

Ansøgning om funding

Der er gode muligheder for at søge økonomisk støtte til efteruddannelse. Erfaringsmæssigt kan der søges op til 50.000 pr. semester afhængig af fonden. Fondene nævnt nedenfor har meget forskellige rammer, ansøgningsdeadlines, særpuljer og ansøgningsprocedurer. Derfor anbefaler vi, at du i meget god tid kontakter fondene for specifik vejledning.

Hos nogle fonde er det i praksis din leder, der indsender din ansøgning i fondenes digitale ansøgningssystem. Vi anbefaler, at du og din leder forbereder jer grundigt inden, da der er meget stor søgning på fondsmidlerne. Tildeles der efter ”først til mølle” kan selv de største puljer være tildelt allerede en 20-30 minutter efter ansøgningsportalen er åbnet.

LAUNCHE EVENT: CENTER FOR DIGITAL PLAY

Tue, 29 Nov 2022 13:35:33 GMT

Play is at the heart of our experience of digital technologies. Whether it is playing around with Artificial Intelligence systems that create texts and images, like DALL-E or GPT-3, engaging in the role-playing mechanics of social media, playing with computers and digital artefacts has a critical role in shaping the digital society. Digital play is an intrinsic yet understudied phenomenon in digital societies, and the play perspective can provide novel insights into the uses and design of computer games, gamification, and game-trained AI; and into the practices of the many communities and users which engage in playful practices as part of their everyday life and cultural engagement.

The Center for Digital Play's ambition is to define what it means to study of play in digital societies from a multidisciplinary perspective. Novel phenomena require novel methods and theories, and the purpose of the Center for Digital Play is to become a reference in the present and future of play and game studies.

The Center for Digital Play is a new research center at the IT University that studies the role of play in shaping digital societies, from artificial intelligence and games to arts and social practices.

The Center for Digital Play is formed by 4 research groups that collaborate in the study of play in digital societies, approaching this topic from a multidisciplinary perspective that encompasses computer science, the humanities, social sciences, psychology, and design research.
