The department electrical engineering and computer science the TH Lübeck offers, among other things, a bachelor’s degree Informatics/ software engineering and a master’s degree Computer science/ software technology for distributed systems on. Computer science and innovation belong together – especially in the area of distributed systems, the development and maintenance of software is associated with many challenges. In the application-oriented and scientifically sound computer science courses at the TH Lübeck, students are prepared for the demands of professional life.
They receive special support at the beginning of their studies: Computer science students at the Lübeck University of Applied Sciences can even attend preparatory and bridging courses before they start their studies and take advantage of peer learning offers. “The math and programming courses were very helpful. In a special Arduino module, we were able to learn early on how to program a microcontroller,” says computer science student Denzel Kuhlemann.
The head of the degree program knows how important intensive support is, especially at the beginning of your studies Soren Werth. The professor for applied mathematics and IT security is convinced: “At the Lübeck University of Applied Sciences, computer science students receive a comprehensive pool of support through math preparatory courses and tutorials, consultations and specific contact persons. We are putting a lot of effort into expanding this offer and adapting it to the current needs of the students.”
Under the umbrella of the Student Service Center (SSC), Olaf Voll, laboratory engineer in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, supervises mathematics and programming courses. “We offer students online and face-to-face courses even before they start their studies. In mathematics courses, existing knowledge is repeated and consolidated, and the first basics are taught in the area of programming. During the first semester, students use the tutorials to consolidate the lecture material and, in the semester breaks, the intensive courses to prepare for the math exam.”
