About the studyprogram

Research-oriented

Students who study Computer Science at the BTU Cottbus-Senftenberg benefit from an accredited Master's degree based on recognized scientific standards.

Academically qualifying

With the completion of a Master's degree, all doors are open to you - decide for yourself whether you want to pursue a specialized position in industry or a career in science.

Master-Thesis

After a professional internship you set yourself up for your master thesis and you are ready to work on your own scientific work. Your mentor will help you.

Software Systems

Learn the development of complex application software with great demands on correctness and maintainability.

Computer Architecture

Learn the principles of computers, operating systems and networks and apply this knowledge in practice.

Specialization

Extend your skills and knowledge in a selected area of Computer Science.

Specialize your self in IT with a self-designed study plan: from Software Engineering and Databases and Information Systems to Embedded Systems and Technical Computer Science. Our Master's degree is ideal for a career in IT or for a PhD.
