Today, information technology permeates almost all areas of social and business life. Some of them even owe their existence to IT.
The Bachelor’s programme in Computer Science teaches students the principles and mathematical underpinnings of this key science. The aim of this programme is to give you the tools to work as software developers, while conveying the scientific underpinnings and enabling you to think in terms of abstract structures. You will learn to put problems of computer science into precise statements, arrive at solutions by creating suitable mathematical models and implement optimised solutions on computer systems.
Students who complete the Bachelor’s degree programme may go on to study for the Master of Science in Computer Science at the University of Passau, where they can build on their acquired knowledge and specialise in a particular field.
Requirements
Entry Requirements
To apply for this degree programme you need a recognised university entrance qualification, e.g. the German Abitur or an equivalent qualification.
Career
Computer scientists are engaged in a wide and growing range of fields, as technologies continue to develop. They occupy exciting positions in the public and private sectors, e.g. in industry, commerce, insurance, financial services, consultancies, and of course, at scientific research institutions.
One possible career path is in software or hardware development at a high-technology company, where projects are typically tackled in interdisciplinary teams.
Alternatively, having graduated from this programme, you may study for a Master’s degree and potentially work towards a career in academia.
