Many paths are open to you. The Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) is the first professional qualification awarded and can be completed in just six semesters.

Master’s Program:
Many graduates choose to continue their studies after earning a bachelor's degree in computer science by pursuing an advanced four-semester master's program, which offers numerous options for electives and specialization.

In addition to the master's program in computer science, graduates of the bachelor's program in computer science also have access to the master's program in business information systems. If business administration or economics was chosen as the applied subject during the bachelor's program, no additional requirements are typically imposed. However, admission to the master's program in business information systems is restricted.

Computer scientists take on development and programming tasks for hardware and software, applying their expertise in complex information, communications, and control systems. They also work in system administration or project management.

Their fields of activity are constantly expanding and undergoing continuous transformation. As a result, they enjoy diverse and attractive career opportunities in challenging areas such as industry, trade and commerce, insurance, services, management consultancy, public administration, and research.

In general, computer scientists find positions in IT companies as well as in organizations and institutions that deploy information and communications technology to manage their business processes.
