Department of Computer Science
Information for Incoming Students
Usually, for a student exchange and the related transfer of credits towards your degree there needs to be a formal cooperation between your home institution and the Department of Computer Science at H-BRS. Here are the most important steps you need to take before the start of your stay abroad:
Step #1 - Formal requirements
Check whether there is a partnership between our university and your home institution that allows for the transfer of academic credits. This could be through Erasmus+ or other bilateral agreements. The International Office at your university, faculty, or department is likely the best place to go for a quick answer.
Step #2 - Academic aspects
Check here for interesting courses taught in English. If you have a good command of German, you can choose courses from any of the Computer Science department’s curricula. For further information, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are happy to assist you with the academic organization of your exchange. You should ensure that the credits you earn at H-BRS are recognized by your home university and count toward your degree. Once you have compiled a list of courses and projects, you should prepare a Learning Agreement as part of your exchange application.
Step #3 - Organization and Logistics
Visit the website of our Welcome Center and fill out the exchange application. You can also use this application to apply for a room or apartment in a student residence hall. The H-BRS Welcome Center will assist you with all organizational matters related to your stay in the Rhineland. The International Office at the department of computer science will be happy to advise you on any questions regarding your studies at the department.
