Annotation

The Bachelor’s degree programme in General Computer Science (Version 14) of the Faculty of Computer Science and Applications explores the design, realisation and validation of software systems. Graduates have a broad and solid knowledge of computer science in order to evaluate and make use of current technologies and future developments. They can analyse and abstract requirements and problems in the field of computer science with the help of modern tools and methods and, for example, develop, implement and review suitable solutions for this within the context of software projects, systematically and taking into account technical and economic conditions.

To reflect the rapid professional and technological developments in IT and to integrate new, relevant content, the General Computer Science programme offers specialisations. In addition to a common undergraduate degree, students can choose a specialisation in the main study stage. The degree course is aimed at students who want to acquire computer science skills primarily in the areas of software engineering, applied artificial intelligence or media informatics.

The degree course explores
● In the specialisation Software Engineering (SE): the systematic development of large software systems;
● In the specialisation Applied Artificial Intelligence (AAI): the design, implementation and use of AI software applications,
e.g. in the field of robotics;
● In the specialisation Media Informatics (MI): the development and design of digital media applications.

The General Computer Science degree course thus addresses the increasing relevance and rapid development of these computer science disciplines, both in terms of technological fundamentals and market-relevant skills requirements. As an undergraduate Bachelor’s degree programme in General Computer Science, it also enables more in-depth study
● In the specialisation Software Engineering, which focuses on the methodological and engineering conception, design, development, testing and application of complex
software systems, or
● In the specialisation Applied Artificial Intelligence, which teaches the fundamentals and application skills of artificial intelligence, especially with regard to
robotics, or
● In the specialisation Media Informatics, which focuses on the design of digital media applications.

The degree course can be completed in two languages (bilingual academic degree). It can be studied on a full-time or part-time basis
both in person and online.
