Master of Science in Computer Science

About

In the past 20 years, developments in informatics and computer science have changed our daily lives significantly. Smart phones, GPS systems, search engines, digital cameras and USB drives make our lives easier. At the same time, researchers are working on further breakthrough innovations in the fields of industry 4.0, autonomous cars and deep learning. The Master's programme in Computer Science will equip you with the practical and theoretical skills necessary to contribute to this technological progress. The curriculum is very flexible. A large variety of elective courses gives students the opportunity to shape their individual profiles while building the basis for a successful international career, whether in academia or in industry. Elective courses are offered in three different areas: cyber-physical systems (e.g., robotics, autonomous intelligent systems, artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision and graphics) information systems or (e.g., verification and analysis of hard- and software systems, software development, programming languages) cognitive technical systems (e.g., theoretical and applied algorithms, networks and distributed systems, data management and communication, bioinformatics)

Requirements

Entry Requirements

Applicants must hold a Bachelor's degree in computer science computer engineering informatics mathematics information technology OR in a closely related field with an excellent CGPA or final grade. The aim of the programme is to develop both practical and theoretical skills. Mathematical analyses and proofs play an important part in the curriculum. Additionally, true mastery of the practical sides of computer science requires mastery of its theoretical foundations. A profound knowledge in theoretical computer science (formal languages, automata theory) is thus one of the most important prerequisites for admission.
