Digital Technologies * (Bachelor)

Studying in Clausthal

Your computer science degree for digitalization and sustainability

DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES is the innovative, practice-oriented computer science degree program at Clausthal University of Technology and Ostfalia University of Applied Sciences. During your studies, you will become an expert in the development of digital sustainable innovations in order to subsequently advance the digital transformation and shape the future sustainably.

New in the study program - Study DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES with practical cooperation

From the winter semester 2023/24, you will have the opportunity to study DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES with practical cooperation at one of the Center for Digital Technologies (DIGIT) practice partners. Here you can earn money during your studies, get to know the company in the accompanying practical phases and gain additional practical experience from your studies. You can find all the information about studying with practical cooperation and current job vacancies here.

DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES - Your practice-oriented computer science degree program

No other discipline is developing as rapidly and producing as many innovations as computer science. As a computer scientist, you are an all-rounder who can shape the future with digital technologies and drive the digital transformation forward.

The DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES degree program combines theory and practice in an innovative way. The strong application focus makes the degree program unique.

At the beginning of your studies, you will acquire basic technical and methodological knowledge of computer science and mathematics. From the second semester onwards, you will choose your individual area of application and thus determine your specialist focus. In addition, there are the interdisciplinary digitalization projects - the heart of the DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES degree program.

Exciting digitization projects, fewer theoretical exams

In digitization projects, small teams of Bachelor's and Master's students work together over the semester on digitization problems and apply their theoretical knowledge in practice.

In addition to the theoretical foundations, students acquire broad application skills in the following areas in the interdisciplinary digitization projects:

  • Project management and creativity techniques
  • Practical hardware and software projects
  • Soft skills (communication, conflict and team skills)
  • SCRUM as a project and product management tool for agile software development

Choose your specialist focus

Bachelor's students choose the area of application that interests them the most and thus set their specialist focus. This allows them to gain insights and experience in modern business and industry fields during their studies - the best prerequisites for an excellent start to their future careers!

These are the current areas of application

  • AUTONOMOUS SYSTEMS
  • CIRCULAR ECONOMY AND ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGY
  • DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION
  • ENERGY
  • INDUSTRY 4.0
  • MOBILITY

Develop innovations for a sustainable future

Digital technologies and innovations can be used to sustainably shape and transform industrial processes. Whether next-generation recycling robots, even smarter control applications for buildings or production processes or even apps for future mobility services - students on the Digital Technologies course learn how to develop all of these digital innovations. No matter what our students choose, they are always at the forefront at the interface between computer science and the field of application.

We also support and promote start-up projects in the field of sustainable innovations by our students.

After the DigiTec study program

After completing your Bachelor's degree, you can study for a consecutive Master's degree in DIGITAL TECHNOLOGIES or start your career directly in the following fields of activity:

  • Software developer or engineer in our application areas
  • Agile project management
  • Scrum Master
  • Innovator and founder
  • Scientist
  • Designer of industrial, sustainable processes
  • Consultant for digital transformation and sustainability
  • Developer for modern human-machine interaction
  • Developer:in the latest AI applications
  • Product Owner:in
  • Agile coach:in

Part-time study

The Bachelor's degree course in Digital Technologies can also be studied part-time. More information on the requirements, structure and legal consequences of part-time study can be found here.

Before applying for and enrolling on a part-time degree program, you must have a consultation with the responsible part-time study coordinator (see below). 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.
