Second level

The qualification holder will be able to:

(general competences)

  • use abstraction and analyse problems,
  • synthesise and critically assess solutions,
  • apply knowledge in practice,
  • share knowledge, communicate professionally and express themselves in writing,
  • search for sources and critically assess information,
  • undertake autonomous professional work and work in an (international) group,
  • develop professional responsibility and ethics,

(subject-specific competences)

  • demonstrate in-depth mastery of knowledge in the field of theoretical computing, logic and discrete mathematics covering the basic and advanced theoretical knowledge, practical knowledge and skills essential for both the computer science and mathematics fields,
  • translate practical problems into the language of mathematics and theoretical computer science and qualitatively analyse the mathematical problems obtained in this way,
  • develop algorithms to resolve given problems and implement them in relevant programming environments,
  • analyse in depth and present results,
  • demonstrate understanding of computer science and information science content and integrate it in other professionally relevant fields (economics, financial mathematics, organisational science, etc.),
  • demonstrate mastery of practical knowledge and skills in the use of software, hardware and information technologies,
  • autonomously perform complex developmental and organisational tasks in their own fields and cooperate with experts from other fields in the addressing of complex tasks and problems.

Examination performance is scored as follows: 10 (excellent); 9 (very good: above-average knowledge but with some mistakes); 8 (very good: solid results); 7 (good); 6 (adequate: knowledge satisfies minimum criteria); 5–1 (inadequate). In order to pass an examination, a candidate must achieve a grade between adequate (6) and excellent (10).

In order to enrol in the second year, students must have completed all first-year course units.

Third-cycle doctoral study programmes (SQF level 10)

In order to complete the programme, students must complete all course units in the subjects in which they have enrolled, write and submit a master's thesis in accordance with rules, and successfully defend their master's thesis in public.
