About the Program
Computer Science as a discipline of systematic information processing has developed over the last decades into a field that is essential in almost all areas of social life and the working world. The university Bachelor's program in Computer Science at BTU Cottbus - Senftenberg provides scientifically sound training in the processes that take place in complex systems and how these can be described, modeled and simulated at various levels of abstraction. This also includes the development of new systems. In addition to basic knowledge in computer science and the closely related fields of mathematics and physics, the program imparts competencies and methodological knowledge for the design, implementation and use of information processing systems. This covers all aspects of computing systems from hardware components to operating and communication systems to application solutions such as the use of databases. Through theoretically sound modeling, accompanied by extensive practical components, which are often completed in small group work, graduates are prepared for the constantly changing requirements of the professional world.
