Computer Science (Bachelor)

Studying computer science - that is the fascination of opening up the world of information and symbolized knowledge and making the best possible use of it. In the Bachelor's degree program in Computer Science, you will learn to develop new and better processes and algorithms to master the complex world of information, reliably control processes, network companies globally or further simplify human-computer interaction.

Studying computer science at Clausthal University of Technology offers you the excitement of creating and mastering new thought models, developing new forms of description for software and algorithms and recognizing the fundamental limits of computability.

Computer science enables multimedia communication everywhere, at any time and immediately. From a technical and methodological perspective, computer science is essentially concerned with the analysis, design and realization of information-processing systems and their adaptation to given operating conditions. This includes software and its creation, but also applications, organizational structures and hardware. A general solution to a problem often has to be adapted to the specific needs of the user.

Initially, all students undergo basic training in mathematics/computer science, which covers the fundamentals of computer science, algorithms and data structures, programming, software engineering, databases, operating systems, distributed systems and the fundamentals of mathematics. From the second year onwards, the focus is then on content from the respective areas, depending on the field of study.

The Bachelor's degree program in Computer Science can also be studied part-time. Further details on the requirements, structure and legal consequences of part-time studies can be found in the"Regulations governing part-time studies (TzO)" of Clausthal University of Technology in the currently valid version.

Before applying for and taking up part-time studies, a consultation with the responsible part-time study coordinator is mandatory. During this consultation, the part-time study coordinator will agree on an individual study plan (learning agreement) for the part-time study program in consultation with the student.
