The degree programme's modules and courses are usually taught in English. A German-language course is also possible if requested by all the students in the module or course. The coursework and the examinations can be taken in either German or English, depending on the student's choice. Optional and mandatory courses may include modules imported from Bachelor's degree programmes or other subject areas in the German language, which means the choice may be restricted in some cases. Therefore, either a) English proficiency of at least level C1* of the "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages” must be proven. Proof is provided exclusively by a language certificate from an internationally recognized language examination. Purely English-language studies or school certificates are not sufficient. or b) English proficiency of at least level B1* of the "Common European Framework of Reference for Languages" and German proficiency of at least level "DSH-2"* must be proven.
Qualification Requirements
We require proof of completion of a relevant Bachelor's degree in the field of Computer Science or proof of a comparable domestic or foreign university degree that qualifies the student for a profession. Students with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a degree in teaching at secondary schools (First State Examination or Master's degree) with Computer Science as a subject are eligible for admission. The professionally qualifying university degree must have been passed with an overall grade of 2.2 or 10.3 grade points or better in accordance with § 28 of the General Provisions. As part of the completed degree program or another degree program, a total of at least 90 credit points (CP) must have been completed in the two scientific disciplines of Mathematics and Computer Science. Of these, at least 12 credits must be allocated to modules from Mathematics and at least 72 credits to modules from Computer Science. In Mathematics, students must have acquired knowledge of the basics of Analysis, Linear Algebra and Statistics. In Computer Science, at least 36 credits must be allocated to modules that correspond to the aims and competences of the following modules: Algorithms and Data Structures, Declarative Programming, Object-Oriented Programming, Systems Software and Computer Communication. Skills in the areas of Database Systems, Software Engineering, Theoretical Computer Science and Technical Computer Science must also have been acquired.
