03 — Criteria

## Selection is based on readiness and coherence.

The Executive MSc is not assessed like a first degree. DSTI looks at academic level, professional maturity and the practical value of the programme for your next chapter.

### Academic level

Applicants are typically already master’s-level graduates or able to demonstrate equivalent academic readiness through previous studies and professional experience.

### Professional experience

A mature professional profile is expected, normally with several years of responsibility and a credible link to AI, data, digital systems or transformation work.

### Project coherence

The application should explain why serious AI and digital transformation competence matters for the applicant’s role, organisation or career direction.

### English readiness

The programme is taught in English. Applicants should be able to read technical material, follow online content and communicate professionally in English.

### Technical foundations

Applicants whose prior studies did not include sufficient mathematics, statistics or IT may be invited to complete an online entry examination or bridging work.

### Study rhythm

Because Online asynchronous study is central to the route, applicants should be ready to organise a steady study rhythm alongside professional responsibilities.

04 — Documents

## Prepare a complete, professional application.

A complete file helps DSTI understand both the academic foundation and the professional logic of your application.

Academic documents
Degree certificates, transcripts and any supporting academic evidence relevant to master’s-level readiness.

Professional profile
CV, role context and professional responsibilities, especially where they connect to digital transformation.

Motivation and fit
