The Department of Computer Science has been offering a master's degree program in Computer Science for many years. The program enables students with a first qualified academic degree to receive a more scientific and theoretically sound education.
Admission requirement for the Master's programme is a qualified Bachelor's degree in Computer Science with a grade of at least 2.5 (according to the German grading system). In individual cases, applicants with qualifications that differ from this can also be admitted.
The 4-semester Master's programme includes a specialized in-depth study and the Master's thesis to be written in the last semester. For all students, the in-depth study of the Master's programme comprises theory, application and interdisciplinary components.
We offer two different options for the Master in Computer Science:
- full-time course (General Master)
- practice-integrated course of study (Dual Master)
Students have the opportunity to design their studies according to their personal preferences. The department offers four different application-oriented majors:
- Software Engineering
- IT Security
- Technical and Graphic Systems
- Business Information Technology
It is also possible to study the Master's programme without a specialisation. Details about the Master's programme in Computer Science can be found in the examination regulations.
To be eligible for our Master in Computer Science, students are required to hold a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science (or a similar degree) with an average grade of at least 2.5 (according to the German grading system).
Students with an average grade of up to 2.9 will be assessed on a case-by-case basis. Admission may be granted based on the assessment of the following criteria:
- scientifically relevant awards
- participation in university committees (at least 2 semesters)
- a fast completion of the Bachelor's degree (standard period of study + 1 semester)
- certificate of employment for a longer professional activity in the field of information technology (at least half a year)
- maternity, paternity, childcare of care of relatives
- stays abroad or studies abroad for professional reasons
