Overview
Program description:
The objective is to train Software Designers with a professional knowledge based on solid theoretical background knowledge. They have the skills to take part in program development, in developing information systems and system management in various areas. The Software Designer often acts as a mediator between the customers of information systems and the producers. In this way, the job of a Software Designer synthesises the constructive activity of engineers with the general problem-solving attitude of mathematicians while participating in teams of large-scale projects. The programme provides students with a broad education in Computer Science in combination with specialised work in computer and information processing techniques, programming languages, data structures, information retrieval, operating systems, compiler design etc. Students learn the theory as well as the methodologies and techniques in the development and implementation of computer systems. The more practical programming courses are aided by several courses in pure and applied mathematics and theoretical computer science courses throughout the curriculum.
