Informatics: Design, Use, Interaction (master's two years)

In the program you can immerse yourself in various branches of information technology like mobile devices, sensors and robots, all of which provide different opportunities for interaction with people. It is also possible to go into depth within the field of applications. You will learn to design solutions for health, services or energy and environment.

This master programme gives you the interdisciplinary competence you need to understand which role information technology plays in society and how technology can be used to solve important tasks. You learn about the interaction between digital and social-human, and how you can use this understanding in design.

In the master thesis you can work with specific issues, such as new forms of interaction and technologies, or new ways to work. This may apply in many kinds of environments: Do you want to create the future computer system for the major hospitals? Do you see for yourself to develop a robot that may be with your old grandfather? Then you've come right.

Through the work of writing a master's thesis in computer science, you learn to work independently and to organize and plan your own work within specific deadlines. You learn to apply the theoretical and practical knowledge that you have acquired through your study program in your own original work, a master's thesis. During the master's studies you will also learn to write and work with scientific material - you learn to collaborate with others on research questions and communicate on academic issues, analyzes and conclusions in the field of computer science. You will be able to convey your own work and to acquire and relate to the feedback you receive.
