In addition to features regarding content, especially the teaching methods practised contribute to the profile of the courses of study. The main objectives are: Guidance on self-employment, teaching of interdisciplinary and networked thinking, promotion of communication skills, project management, leadership skills and team-oriented behaviour and ability to think in an abstract, analytical way and to work in an academic capacity. This is achieved by a good student-teacher ratio in the lectures with 40 to 70 participants in the Bachelor's degree and with 20 participants in the Master´s degree programmes.

International projects, semesters abroad, collaboration with international universities/universities of applied sciences, double degrees, uniquely internationally oriented Bachelor's degree course International Information Systems.

15 lecture halls, each with a networked lecturer computer, two projectors, microphone system, central media control, whiteboards or green boards; In some lecture halls, video projection, SMART Boards, overhead projectors; Set up for student laptops with power sockets/mains sockets as well as campus-wide WiFi access; 14 labs for practice, exercises and free practice, 24/7 access possible with chip card; 1 lab room with educational network; 4 project rooms for project groups, 2 seminar rooms, 1 copier room; 3D printing lab, loaning of mobile devices such as PDAs and mobile phones for project work and final theses.

The faculty is involved in the research institutes HSA_innos (Innovative Security) and HSA_ired (Resource-Efficient Data Transfer and Data Processing) in terms of personnel and via a high level of third-party funding and has four independent research groups: Distributed Systems, Efficient Embedded Systems, Automation in Usability Engineering and Network Technologies/Applications. Through collaborations with partners in universities and industry, the faculty opens up a wide range of opportunities for its young academics, from international publication to successful doctorates.

The Faculty of Computer Science is home to the business start-up department |HSA_funkenwerk - the start-up incubator for the Augsburg region. Since 2017, the team of 7 has been supporting business founders from the first idea through to a competitive business model. The services include start-up-related teaching and project formats, regular start-up consultation hours and an incubator programme. Numerous professors of the Faculty of Computer Science are involved in start-up promotion; since 2022, the faculty has had its own professorship for IT Entrepreneurship and IT Innovation Management. Since 2017, 13 out of 16 EXIST grants have come from the Faculty of Computer Science alone.

The Faculty of Computer Science considers its main task to be the education of the students. Within this, the active and independent work of the students, in addition to the quality of teaching and the subject-specific qualifications, is at the foreground. The faculty supports high-quality teaching in all fields of Computer Science including related fields and strives to achieve the coexistence of practice-oriented teaching and applied practical research. For us, commitment to service learning is a matter of course, so that we can help students to grow into sought-after personalities.
