MA/MS in Computer Science

This English-taught master's programme in computer science lets students specialise in focus areas, and the chosen specialisation is recorded on the final certificate. Elective modules from at least two focus areas make up the curriculum, so students can either build depth in one area or study broadly. The programme leads to the degree Master of Science with a standard duration of 4 semesters and 120 ECTS credits. Teaching is in English, and studies can begin in either the winter or the summer semester. Admission is open (zulassungsfrei) with no numerus clausus restriction, so applicants are enrolled when the formal conditions are met. The degree is awarded by Universität Paderborn, a public university in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany. No tuition fee is stated on the programme page. Prospective students should consult the programme page and the university's study advisory service for module structure, examination rules and enrolment steps before applying.
