Master's degree programmes

M.Sc. Artificial Intelligence Engineering

The brand new M.Sc. Artificial Intelligence Engineering covers scientific theories, algorithms and methods for designing and developing AI-based systems. As a research-oriented programme, it also considers interdisciplinary perspectives: the widespread use of AI-based systems raises not only technical but also legal, ethical, social and economic questions.

To the programme

M.Sc. Computer Science

Those graduating with an M.Sc. Computer Science are able to define, autonomously and comprehensively, computer science problems and their applications, structure them and build abstract models. Moreover, the programme conveys the relevant knowledge to define and implement state-of-the-art solutions.

To the programme

M.Sc. Mathematics

The M.Sc. Mathematics allows students to gain advanced knowledge in cryptography, computer algebra, algorithmic algebra and geometry, image and signals processing, statistics and stochastic simulation, dynamical systems and control theory as well as expert knowledge in computer science fields such as data management, machine learning and data mining.

To the programme

M.Sc. Information Systems

Information Systems specialists combine technical know-how with business acumen. The Master’s programme offers a major in Artificial Intelligence and Data-Driven Business and a major in Information Systems Management.
