Modules and ECTS

- Computer Science

 

The Computer Science programme is made up of 5 semesters equalling a total of 150 ECTS points. 
 

Subjects and modules are interwoven so that the students learn to apply all their skills and competences on a complex set of problems and not only on isolated single subject problems.

 

Incoming students therefore have to follow all activities of a semester, meaning they have to follow all 30 ECTS of one semester - students cannot be exempt from single subjects or mix subjects from different courses and different semesters.
