The Master's degree programme in Computer Science at Marburg University runs over 4 semesters and totals 120 ECTS credits. It trains students to work independently at an advanced level using scientific principles, with the ability to analyse and critically evaluate knowledge in the context of professional and digital practice. Students select from a wide range of elective modules in both practical and theoretical computer science, allowing them to set individual focal points. The programme includes a one-year software project in which students practice software engineering and apply specific technologies, and at least one seminar focused on engaging with scientific literature. An optional profile area of 12 ECTS can be completed in a subject where computer science has applications. The programme concludes with an individual master's thesis on a research-related computer science problem. Students may also apply for credit from modules outside the department. The programme is offered at Marburg University in Marburg, Germany.
