Further information provided by the department

Special features regarding teaching in the bachelor's degree programme

The bachelor's degree programme has a relatively extensive number of minor subjects, which enables early inter-disciplinary qualification. This can be further expanded in the master's programme as part of interdisciplinary studies. In both degree programmes, project seminars lead to project work via research-based learning. The computer science learning centre offers technical, methodological and technical support for computer science students in the first to third study semesters. The aim of the computer science learning centre is to make the transition from school to university easier, especially for first-year students.
