Samwel, Computer Science, B.Sc.
Compute with a purpose: Computer science is closely linked to other sciences and therefore often goes hand in hand with them.
On the Applied Computer Science degree course, you will therefore learn how to use computer science as a tool in various disciplines to solve real-world problems.
You can combine subjects such as engineering informatics, bioinformatics, neuroinformatics, robotics or computational linguistics according to your own interests and learn to apply your skills in an interdisciplinary way in a wide range of industries.
