About the Program

The primary objective of this programme is the education of IT all-rounders for an occupation in the relevant working world. Graduates will be able to analyse problems systematically and find solutions independently by means of information and communication technology. The programme will prepare for the changing requirements in the IT job market. As the demand for information scientists in the area of software development is very high, special attention is given to that domain during the programme. Furthermore, the programme provides the possibility to obtain special knowledge in selected subareas of information technology. Another objective of this programme is to prepare students, who wish to gain further qualification, to continue their education with a Master programme in computer science. Mandatory courses include: Foundations of Computer Science, Hard- and Software Systems, Software Engineering, Technical Foundations, Mathematics, General Fundamentals, Seminar, and Team Project. Elective courses to the extent of 40 ECTS credits are to be selected from the current elective courses of the Bachelor programme Computer Science. The programme concludes with a Bachelor thesis (3 months).
