Overview
The Master's degree course in Applied Computer Science at TU Dortmund University offers an excellent opportunity to specialize further in this exciting field. Students can set an individual study focus through numerous elective options.
The following research specializations can be chosen:
- Software, security and verification
- Embedded and distributed systems
- Intelligent systems
- Algorithms and complexity
As in the Bachelor's degree, there is also an application subject: you can choose from engineering disciplines such as electrical engineering, logistics, mechanical engineering or robotics.
Skills and knowledge
As a prerequisite for enrollment in the Master's degree program in Applied Computer Science, a relevant (Computer Science) Bachelor's degree with a good grade (2.9 or better) is required.
Field of activity
After successfully completing a Master's degree in Applied Computer Science, career opportunities are partly determined by the application subject. For example, graduates with electrical engineering as an application subject are particularly in demand in technical professions such as aerospace and aviation or in the automotive industry.
Graduates in Dortmund have an easy start to their careers, not least due to the variety of attractive employers in the neighboring technology park and the internationally visible IT scene in the region.
Additional information
The project group is a special course in the Master's program that extends over two semesters. The participants create a software product in a team and have to carry out the project development, documentation and presentation independently. This teaches a wide range of important soft skills that are highly valued by many employers.
