Specialisation
Section Specialization 2
This specialization follows the same goals as specialization 1. Moreover, the minimum number of credits to be obtained in this specialization is smaller than for specialization 1. Successfully examined modules of at least 12 credits are required. Seminars and projects are not madatory but may also be chosen in specialisation 2. The fields of specialization and the lectures offered for them are the same as those of specialization 1.
Free Elective Area
Section Supplementary Block
The supplementary block has to be planned in consultation with the student’s mentor (a professor of the Computer Science Department assigned by the examination board). The examination plan for the supplementary block can be planned according to the following goals:
- Broadening the computer science study profile by choosing additional modules from arbitrary specializations other than the chosen specializations 1 and 2.
- Strengthening the study profile in a specific application area by choosing modules from study programs of other departments.
Up to 8 credits can be used for electing modules that help develop interdisciplinary skills (personal development, social/ethical aspects of CS, language skills, etc.).
If modules from study programs of other departments are chosen, then at most 10 credits can be obtained by modules from bachelor programs.
A maximum of one additional project or 'guided research' project can be placed in the supplementary block (but only those that are not assigned to one of the chosen specialisations.
Mentor approval is required for the Supplementary Block section of the examination plan.
