Please note that the bachelor programme is offered in Danish only.
A degree in Computer science can be achieved at three different levels:
- Bachelor's degree (BSc.)
- Master’s degree (MSc.)
- Doctorate (PhD)
On this site, you can read more about the overall structure of the bachelor programme in Computer science.
Bachelor programme
The first year is called the Science-year. Here you will be introduced to the basic principles of mathematics and computer science.
During the Science-year, we appreciate transparency, which is why the year is divided into four quarters. Throughout the year, you will get to learn a variety of scientific disciplines, all of which are related to the programme you have chosen. All courses last one or two quarters. Thus you will never follow more than three courses per quarter. This gives you ample opportunity to witness the interconnection of the courses. The Science-year ends with a large assignment where you will get to try your hand at a research project.
During your 2nd and 3rd year, you will encounter the basic disciplines of computer science such as algorithms, structuring operative systems, compiler theory, computability and linear programming. You will finish with a bachelor project, where a specific scientific problem will be analysed through research of both an experimental and theoretical context.
The bachelor programme in Computer science must be combined with an Elective/Minor either within or outside of the field of the natural sciences. At the end of the Science-year, you choose which subject you wish to combine with your Major.
Master’s degree
After receiving a Bachelor’s degree, you can choose to continue with the master programme in Computer science at University of Southern Denmark.
Doctorate
After receiving a Master’s degree, you can choose to continue with the PhD programme. As a PhD student, you contribute to the discovery of new research results and you will be on the cutting edge of international research. At the same time, you will achieve teaching and mediation credentials.
