What it’s about

Whether we’re shopping, driving a car or making a call – computers are a part of our everyday life. Almost all technical appliances include microcomputers. Qualified staff and experts in this field are highly sought after, and in this degree programme we’ll make you one of them. Our main focus – and your future main focus – is on these topics: Software, web, mobile, security, usability.

Course structure & majors

Over the course of seven semesters we will make you an expert in software development.  We’ll start with giving you a solid knowledge base in computer science in general, but applying what you learn and practicing play a crucial role throughout your studies: Almost all of your lectures will include tutorials and labs.  You will develop software and all the facets this includes – particularly for the web and for mobile apps. You will create web apps, develop apps for mobile devices and learn everything about computer networks – from their structure to their operation and security aspects.

In the seventh semester of the programme, the last semester of your studies, you complete an internship and write your bachelor’s thesis.
