Computer Science (M.Sc.)

Profile

Computer Science

The Computer Science master’s program combines key skills with a wide and varied range of optional modules to provide a scientifically sound education. The optional modules are grouped into three specializations and can be freely combined according to individual interests:

Depending on the combination chosen, this can lead to a specialisation, which will be noted on the final certificate.

Who is the program aimed at?

The program is suitable for motivated and committed individuals with a first professional degree in computer science, media informatics, business information systems or a subject related to computer science from a state-recognized university in Germany or abroad. The degree should have a scope of at least 210 ECTS credits and be graded with an average of 2.3 or better. 

Admission with less than 210 ECTS credits

Applicants from Bachelor's degree programs with a workload of 180 ECTS credits only can be admitted. In this case, as a rule, further courses corresponding to a total of 30 ECTS credits must be taken until the end of the Master's program.

One year of professional experience as the equivalent of a seventh semester of study

In accordance with the intentions of the EU Commission to introduce a European Qualifications Framework, at least one year of relevant professional practice after completion of a six-semester Bachelor's program can be counted as the equivalent of a seventh semester of study. This is decided on a case-by-case basis by the admission committee of the subject. A record of the additional credits to be completed will be made for each applicant concerned and will be shown in the Diploma Supplement.

Double degree

The Master's degree program in Computer Science can be studied as double degree option "Data Science in Business Information Systems" in Taiwan or "Data Science and Artificial Intelligence" in France.
