Master in MSc Applied Computer Science

The Master's programme in Applied Computer Science at Deggendorf Institute of Technology covers advanced topics in computer science and electronics with a strong focus on embedded systems development. IT security is a central element of the programme, supported by the institution's dedicated cybersecurity institute. From the first semester, teaching combines theoretical knowledge with application-oriented training. Access to more than 20 in-house laboratories, additional technology campuses, and partnerships with industry and research projects gives students opportunities to engage with real challenges in the design, testing, and development of embedded systems. Coursework frequently centres on project-based work. The first semester covers theoretical and practical computer science and embedded software development. The second semester introduces special mathematical methods and allows students to choose from a range of elective modules drawn from electrical engineering and media technology. The third semester concludes with a Master's thesis and colloquium. The programme runs over 3 semesters and is available from both the winter and summer semesters. German and English language courses are integrated into the curriculum. The programme is offered at Deggendorf Institute of Technology in Deggendorf, Germany.
