Bachelor of Computer Science (FS-FI-BACS)

Computer Science is undergoing rapid change and allows you to be at the cutting edge of technological advancements. Digital development and other IT topics such as big data will have a huge impact on the future of our society, which means that experts in this field are in great demand.

Whether you have IT or an industry that uses IT in mind, the online BSc Computer Science programme will teach you all the knowledge and skills you need for a successful start in the IT job market.

One particular focus of the BSc Computer Science programme is software engineering. This is currently the most important sub-discipline of computer science, and it can be applied in many jobs across a wide range of industries. You’ll build a broad knowledge base complemented by courses like cyber security, data science, and artificial intelligence. Enhance your career with additional skills in data security, project management, and IT law.

First of all, you’ll lay the foundations with introductory classes on programming, academic writing, and mathematics. Afterwards, in the computer science modules, you’ll deal with core topics such as databases, algorithms, and theoretical computer science.

In addition, you’ll expand and deepen your skillset with core areas of software engineering. These include modules such as requirements engineering, software quality assurance, and IT service management. Courses on IT security and IT law, agile project management, and current issues in computer science will round off your studies.
