Department of Computer Science

Computer Science (MSc)

The Master's degree programme in Computer Science provides students with additional, in-depth, scientifically sound concepts, methods and techniques of computer science after a first professionally qualifying university degree in a relevant subject. The Master's programme makes our graduates generalists in computer science - and at the same time specialists in a subject area that they can choose freely according to their personal interests. H-BRS offers a wide range of specialisations.

The specialisations include:

  • Bio-Medizinische Informatik
  • Eingebettete Systeme
  • Informationssicherheit
  • Komplexe Softwaresysteme
  • Medieninformatik
  • Telekommunikation
  • Wirtschaftsinformatik

 

The Master's degree programme at H-BRS is characterised by individual supervision, guidance towards independent scientific work and interdisciplinary cooperation in research and development projects.

After successful completion of the course, students are awarded the internationally recognised academic degree of Master of Science. This degree entitles the holder to a doctorate. The degree prepares students for specialist and management positions in industry, business, administration, research and development.
