The innovative one-year master's programme in Digital Administration (MDA) aims to train top public servants, professionals and IT specialists in leading a comprehensive digitalisation of the public sector based on Estonia's experience in building a digital state and related technology business ecosystem.
This involves:
  • acquiring knowledge on the foundations of digital governance, guiding principles behind it and necessary technological conditions;
  • being able to recognise specific practical use cases that a highly digitalised public sector provides effective and efficient governance and increases the quality of life through developing various digital services that cross domain boundaries, capture unique data and use it in novel ways.
This programme will answer questions like:
  • How to develop a digital government that people use and trust?
  • How to build and govern new human-centric digital services?
  • How to optimise work culture with digital technology?
  • How to educate society to harness the full potential of a digital nation?
The MDA differs from other similar programmes in four important ways:
  • It is an online one-year master's programme, which includes two physical sessions with top Estonian experts (one week at the beginning and a second week at the end of the programme).
  • It includes a specialisation module that focuses on four separate domains in depth.
  • It has general courses that are designed around actual use cases.
  • Its graduates are trained not only as general managers of e-governance but practitioners who recognise e-governance use cases across disciplines.
