Description

The Bachelor degree course “Computer Science and Communications Engineering” brings together the domains „informatics” and „communications engineering“, which were in the past always treated separately. The graduates will be acquainted with the competences to basically understand modern systems under information- and communication engineering. Computer technology and software development are in this context as important as electronic system components.

The graduates will be put in the position to understand the functioning of such systems on their own and to take part in their implementation and their operation. They should in particular be able to understand the functions and the areas of applications of such systems and be able to communicate with their colleagues and with customers.

In the basic lectures, natural and engineering sciences will be taught to the students. Building upon that, knowledge from lectures in electrical engineering, informatics and communications engineering, which is needed for further studying in this degree program and which is also essential for starting a career in the IT-world will be given to the students.

The fields of activity of the graduates mainly lie in the domain of information- and communications engineering in the sense of the fusion of computer- and communications engineering.

Hence this results in the following application areas:

  • Installation, operation and maintenance of systems which fall under mobile telephony and wireless information systems.
  • Working in companies which deal with service integration (e.g. information and communication engineering, multimedia).
  • Setup and operation of application systems with a high proportion of signal processing and signal transfer e.g. in the process control or in the medical engineering domains.

In so doing, potential employers are small- and- medium-sized companies as well as big, international enterprises.
