About the programme

The MSc Computer Science at Hamburg University of Technology (TUHH) is a full-time, English-taught programme of 4 semesters and 120 ECTS, with a start in April or October. It gives you broad, in-depth knowledge of advanced and research-related areas of practical, technical and theoretical computer science. You take specialisations in Computer and Software Engineering, Intelligence Engineering, which covers topics such as big data and machine learning, and Mathematics, plus two subjects of your choice from the whole range of TUHH's technical subjects, for example to build a profile in medical technology or avionics. Compulsory modules cover operations and management and non-technical subjects. In the third semester you do nine weeks of project work, and in the fourth you write your thesis, which can be in English. A dual study variant is also possible.
