Contents

The minor subject “Computer Science” is divided into a mandatory component and the mandatory elective modules in mathematics, computer engineering and practical computer science. In the two mandatory modules, a basic knowledge of computer science will be taught (learning an object-oriented programming language, basic knowledge of the design, development and testing of programs, designing simple algorithms and data structures, and necessary abstraction techniques).

Prospects

The minor subject “Computer Science” teaches the necessary computer science skills, abilities and methods to enable the graduates to act independently in the modern, changing professional world. You will be able to handle new media with confidence, communicate, work in a team and perform practical tasks related to computer science in business, industry and the public sector.

A minor subject will help you to extend your professional qualifications profile, which is decisively shaped by the choice of your major subject. In conjunction with your major subject, your relevant work experience (e.g. internships, part-time jobs, voluntary work) and your personal skills, it will enable you to refine your profile and carve out your own individual array of career options.
