Masters in Computer Science and IT
Masters in Computer Science provided by top tech schools focus on studying coding languages and programming theory for Information and Computer Systems. Undergraduate Computer Science programmes teach students software theory, design, development, and application.

A Master’s in Computer Science may be the right choice for you if you like Math, are a genuine problem solver and want to take your undergraduate Computer Science knowledge to the next level. You will also need to be disciplined and patient, as sometimes you will need to take part in a lot of planning before starting a project or spend days or weeks on finding the right solution for fixing a bug. In addition to learning Computer Science at a tech school, you need to be comfortable with learning on your own, researching and finding solutions that address unique problem you are facing.

Study in Denmark
Denmark takes pride in having an excellent education system and some of the best academic institutions in Europe. If you’re an EU/EEA national, you can even study for free at local public universities. Classes are held in small groups, allowing students to focus better and actively participate in discussions and activities. This also enables professors to pay attention to each student individually, ensuring nobody is overlooked. Over 90% of Danish people speak English, so language barriers are non-existent. However, there’s a high chance you’ll need to learn Danish, at least at a conversational level, if you want to get a part-time job during your studies. Don’t be surprised if you’ll find yourself falling in love with ‘Hygge’ — a Danish concept that can be summed up as a feeling of calm, coziness, and tranquillity, simply feeling good in the moment. It’s all about appreciating and enjoying your current experience.

Description

The MSc programme in Computer Science offers a solid foundation in both theoretical and practical computer science, and thereby gives you the chance to explore the academic and commercial perspectives of the field at the very highest level.

The two-year programme provides access to an array of contemporary, advanced IT programmes and specialisations offered by other universities here in Denmark as well as institutions abroad.

Computer science is for those of you who are creative, can think logically, work in a structured manner and have a desire to immerse yourself in the theoretical or practical aspects of IT.

You can choose between six specialisations:
Computational and Mathematical Modelling
Programming Languages and Systems
Software Development
Digital Interactive Entertainment
Computer Science Innovation
Algorithms and Data Structures
Read about the structure of the programme and the specialisations.
Career Opportunities
A degree in Computer Science opens the door for a tremendous range of career and employment possibilities. Whether you dream of a career as a programmer or software designer, you will work with many creative applications of IT. Or, perhaps your ambitions reside more within a research oriented career, within fields such as logistics, medical diagnostics or robotics.

An enormous demand for computer scientists exists throughout the private sector. You will also find numerous opportunities for employment in public institutions, as a university researcher or within other educational establishments. Your work might consist of the design and development of new systems and new software or the maintenance and expansion of existing systems including advice and consultancy.

IT security is one particular area of growth in which the security of web and IT systems is tested. Among the many other possibilities, numerous computer scientists engage in entrepreneurship and establish companies of their own.
