Computer Science

专业介绍

In today’s digital world, the demand for skilled IT specialists is higher than ever. With a bachelor’s in computer science from Aarhus University in Denmark, you’ll be part of shaping the future by developing secure, efficient, and user-friendly apps, cloud services, and IT systems.

Study in Denmark’s student city No. 1 where you will experience a thriving tech scene with plenty of opportunities for international students.

What is Computer Science?

Computer Science centres around the understanding of and working with data and information using computers. It involves everything from writing code to solving problems, analysing data for insights, and developing new technologies. It’s  learning the language  of computers  so that we as computer scientists can collaborate with them to solve problems and create new innovations.

In the Computer Science programme, you’ll learn to design, program, and ensure the correctness of software from scratch. You’ll be able to program in a variety of programming languages, handle large amounts of data, and process data with artificial intelligence and visual methods. You’ll also learn methods to prevent cyberattacks – all for the goal to develop user-friendly, flawless, and secure IT solutions.

A central part of computer science is modelling and effectively solving complex problems. Relevant mathematical methods play a central role in several of the courses, as you’ll use these methods to develop and understand algorithms and investigate the security and efficiency of IT systems.

Why study Computer Science?

Studying Computer Science enables you to think creatively, analytically, and critically. You’ll learn to break down large problems into smaller, manageable parts, and then use logical and creative thinking to solve them.

Computer Science is the IT education that provides you with the most solid academic foundation, whether you want to work in the IT industry or within research and education. As a computer scientist, you can have a significant impact on digital development both nationally and internationally. You’ll gain an understanding of how digital solutions benefit and affect both society and individual users. IT specialists are in high demand in all industries, and you can, for example, work in areas such as app or cloud development, IT security, digital banking systems, health technology, climate and energy technology, public administration, or as a self-employed entrepreneur.

At Aarhus University’s Department of Computer Science, you’ll be taught by internationally-leading researchers. The department is ranked as one of the top 100 in the world, and our researchers have invented many of the computer science methods and theories used worldwide.

Programming experience is not a requirement to start. We ensure that you learn this central discipline from scratch regardless of your starting point.

If you find it exciting to help shape the future, then this is where you belong! We’ll teach you everything you need to know about algorithms, machine learning, Big Data, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and software development.
