What is Computer Science at the FHV?

... are only some of the key words from the field of information systems that surround us today.

Are you a computer scientist? Then you know very well what challenges lie ahead of us.

In the master's degree programme for Computer Science at the FH Vorarlberg, we qualify our graduates for assuming these challenges in information technology. We train software experts that develop intelligent applications for mobile, embedded and ubiquitous systems by applying modern methods of software engineering. Our students learn to create people-compatible interfaces in increasingly complex system landscapes and to network various devices efficiently and intelligently so they can work together.

Students benefit from qualified lecturers that come from the private sector and possess exceptional international contacts. Projects and exercises are held in small groups of four to twelve students. This ensures not only excellent support, but also a high degree of success in the degree programme.

Besides specialisation in the field, we offer the possibility of personal profile creation with our module library. This interdisciplinary curriculum is unique among universities of applied sciences. In over 20 modules, we offer students the possibility of individually selecting the subjects according to their professional and personal goals, interests and inclinations as well as the opportunity to design their academic path independently on their own.

Our students acquire the necessary competency and certainty to make decisions and fulfil the tasks of a chief software architect.

Their development competency is to recognise complex relationships.

We train software specialists who create people-compatible interfaces in increasingly complex system landscapes and enable various devices to work together in an efficient and intelligent way.

You will develop decision competency with us.

During the degree programme, you will learn instruments that let you assume leadership responsibilities later.

Personal support through highly qualified lecturers.

Our international team of lecturers gives us global connections to companies in the economy and research. This ensures that the training and exciting content is highly relevant and reflects the latest state of knowledge.
