Method-oriented training profile; academically well-grounded study with a focus on the fundamentals and application; Range of interdisciplinary opportunities thanks to traditional university setting; strong synergies between research and teaching; Innovative use of e-learning and modern media in all areas of study (e.g. use of smartphones and tablets); Teaching of interdisciplinary and social skills (soft skills); training for independent learning and working in corporate or academic environment; Cross-campus learning via EUCOR university network

academically well-grounded study with a focus on the methods and application; Flexible curriculum that allows students to develop their own profile (with optional specialisation in artificial intelligence or cyberphysical systems); strong synergies between research and teaching; Innovative use of e-learning and modern media in all areas of study (e.g. use of smartphones and tablets); Insight into other subjects thanks to the requirement that students take courses in other faculties; Opportunity for study abroad or for cross-campus learning via the EUCOR university network

High proportion of international students (approx. 50%) in the English-language Master's degree programme; Cross-location learning via EUCOR university network (Germany, France, Switzerland); Partner University in EPICUR Alliance (European Partnership for an Innovative Campus Unifying Regions); Study abroad opportunities via Erasmus, stay abroad opportunities via Erasmus +; Intercultural continuing education and training opportunities for employees facilitate research cooperation on an international level; Special internationalisation in the teaching profession via ConnEcTEd (Coherence in European Teacher Education)

Generally: Comprehensive WiFi, modern multimedia equipment for online learning and e-learning (recording software, Zoom, BigBlueButton), ILIAS content management system; Within the department: Various laboratories with special equipment (robotics, computer graphics and vision, hardware/embedded systems); Mobile technology equipment for group work involving practical training on hardware and system design projects; Galaxy Server (Bioinformatics); Use of GitHub in various faculties; Student workshop (run by the student council); University-wide/computer centre: High-performance computing (NEMO, bwHPC, ATLAS BFG), various servers.

Research and teaching are closely linked, there is interaction beyond the boundaries of the institute and faculty on a daily basis. Basic and applied research are carried out to an equal extent frequently with the involvement of the students. Focus areas lie in the fields of Cyber-Physical Systems, Cognitive Technical Systems and Information Systems, as well as Bioinformatics. Areas of excellence (CIBSS – Centre for Integrative Biological Signal Studies) as well as cooperations with Fraunhofer Institutes offer an ideal environment. One of 17 ELLIS Centres of Excellence for Machine Learning in Europe.

The topics of diversity and sustainability are of great importance both for the entire university and the department. Diversity: "Technology, women, Freiburg" and a girls day to promote women; Diversity Day and University Health Day illustrate the university's expanded understanding of gender equality; Representative for students with disabilities/chronic diseases; Sustainability: Sustainability talks in the faculty; Sustainability issues in research and teaching, in operation (saving energy + climate protection) and governance of the university; Sustainability Innovation Campus (ICN) together with the KIT.
