BSc Computer Science at University of Bonn

The basis of all IT-relevant technologies is the mathematical representation of real-world problems in the form of algorithms. Computer Science deals with the development and application of such algorithms for nearly all technical devices as well as various computer-aided fields.

Duration: 6 semesters (3 years)  |  Study mode: full-time; German-taught  |  Intake: Wintersemester (winter semester)  |  Location: Bonn, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

What you will study

Theoretical computer science lays the groundwork by asking how and to what degree of complexity a problem can be represented algorithmically, while practical computer science develops methods and concepts to solve these problems (e.g. by creating custom software). Technical computer science, on the other hand, deals with the fundamental characteristics of hardware. Finally, application and realization are the domain of applied computer science.

Career pathways

Production/development of IT systems (computer design, development of operating systems and user interfaces), positions in trade/consulting (system/application programming, IT organization, system support, training), employment on the user side (administration, maintenance/expansion of IT and programming systems, training/support), academia (teaching/research at universities, research institutions, etc.)
