Programme Overview

Kiel University offers a Master's degree programme in Computer Science. Lectures are held in German as well as in English. We take care to offer programmes which can be studied with proof of knowledge in one of these languages. Our Master's programme is designed to give you high flexibility, so if you are interested in a specific module, you should contact the student adviser or the research adviser. As we do not expect you to choose the research adviser for your thesis right at the beginning of your Master's studies, it is possible to modify the programme even after you have started your Master's studies. However, it is recommended that you choose your research adviser by the beginning of the final year of your Master's studies.
