How is Computer Science structured?
The master’s programme in Computer Science is studied over 2 years, and each academic year is divided into 2 semesters. There are opportunities for a study abroad experience and a company project during the course of study.
Below, you can see an overview of the programme structure. If you start the degree in February, the master’s programme follows a slightly different structure, with the first and second semesters reversed.
Choices and options
In the Computer Science programme, you have the opportunity to shape your education through elective courses and project topics. You can also undertake a company project within a business or organisation to test your knowledge in practice.
Additionally, you have the option to go on an exchange programme and gain international experience.
In the 4th semester, you will complete your education with your master’s thesis.
