Information – the raw material of the future!
In the age of digitalization and networking, computer science has become a fundamentally important science. It has become indispensable in business, research, medicine, mobility, and communication. All these areas of application are based on the systematic and automated processing of information. The Bachelor's study program in computer science therefore provides in-depth knowledge in all core areas of the subject:
- Theoretical computer science: This field deals with the modeling of questions, computability, and the complexity of problems.
- Practical computer science: This involves the development of concrete solution concepts and algorithms.
- Computer engineering: This focuses on hardware.
Good to know
- A very broad range of courses, allowing for individual specialization during the course of study.
- A high proportion of practice-oriented teaching: Students are introduced to practical work early on in their studies. Students benefit from the department’s research strengths, as the latest findings are consistently and rapidly integrated into their education.
- Excellent job prospects: 60 percent of our graduates secure employment immediately after graduation, and within four months, all graduates from a given cohort have obtained a suitable position.

Computer Science as a minor subject
Computer science is relevant in all areas of our daily lives. This means that computer science skills are also needed in other industries. In order to keep pace with this development, a Bachelor of Arts degree with a minor in computer science can be useful. In such cases, the BA program consists of a major in the humanities or social sciences and a minor in computer science. Computer science as a minor subject accounts for a significantly smaller proportion of the degree program than the respective major subject and essentially teaches the methodology and fundamental content of computer science.
