Annotation

Would you like to dive into the world of codes and develop innovative IT solutions? Then achieve your goals with a degree programme with vocational and academic elements in Computer Science. In doing so, you acquire in-depth know-how in programming and deal with the principles of mathematics. Your curriculum also includes exciting topics such as Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, Artificial Intelligence and Agile Software Development. Of course, you also deal with IT law and data protection. You can apply what you have learned directly at your practice partner. The specialisations of User Experience and Software Engineering enable you to specialise even during your degree course.

In the degree programme with vocational and academic elements at the IU, you will study in one of the following two study models. In the degree programme with vocational and academic elements, lectures take place on two days per week on the campus in Berlin or Düsseldorf – occasionally also online via live video conference. Students then reinforce what they have learned using the learning materials. The "myStudium" degree programme with vocational and academic elements combines flexible self-study with digital learning formats. You will acquire the theory independently via myCampus – supported by innovative learning materials and Syntea, your personal AI learning assistant. Optionally, you can participate in weekly virtual accompanying courses as well as use other interactive live formats to deepen your knowledge.
