Study program structure and content
The first three semesters provide students with an introduction to the theoretical and mathematical foundations of computer science, as well as to the fundamentals of artificial intelligence and data science. Students acquire and strengthen their programming skills. From the third semester onward, these foundations are deepened and expanded. Additional compulsory courses in data science and artificial intelligence are included, along with two elective catalogs that allow students to tailor their study programs to suit their individual interests.
In the Artificial Intelligence and Data Science project, students apply their acquired skills in a practical setting, gaining hands-on experience for their future careers in industry. Within the elective program, students have the opportunity to take an applied course of up to 12 ECTS, allowing them to deepen their professional focus. At the end of the program, students can apply all the knowledge they have acquired to write their own scientific thesis – the Bachelor’s thesis.

Images from the study program
Get a glimpse of how the study program works.
Most courses are conducted in the form of traditional lectures. These are usually held in large lecture halls…
…and accompanying exercises are conducted in smaller classrooms, led by student tutors. These courses are usually concluded with a written exam.
Students are encouraged to learn independently right from the beginning, through projects and seminars. In project work, students work in teams on a scientific or practical problem, for example, by programming a piece of software. They are supervised in small groups by professors and academic staff from the department.
The results of projects from the Software Engineering and Computer Science programs are presented to the entire department on Project Day. This is an internal conference in which students present their work and draw insights and inspiration from the projects of others.
