Computer science

The Computer Science major offers you the option to specialize further in the field of general computer science.

The organizational interlocking in the joint degree course allows you to switch easily between the two fields in the first year of study - ideal if you are not quite sure which direction suits you best.

The modules in Computer Science are divided into two compulsory blocks, Advanced Foundations of Computer Science and Advanced Mathematical Foundations, as well as an application-oriented compulsory elective block.

The compulsory block Advanced Foundations of Computer Science comprises the following modules:

  • Computer Networks and Distributed Systems
  • Logic and Verification
  • Embedded systems
  • Fundamentals of Artificial Intelligence
  • Fundamentals of computer graphics and
  • Human-machine interaction

In addition, we offer our students the opportunity to acquire industry-recognized certificates in the areas of software development and enterprise resource planning (SAP) during their studies.

Job profile and labor market

Graduates of computer science courses are offered employment opportunities in public and private research institutions as well as project managers in software development. They assume responsibility for the development, procurement and adaptation of hardware and software to solve specific problems or analyze, design and develop new processes, algorithms and information systems for trade and industry. Consulting activities for companies and the education and training of users are also possible areas of employment.
