Profile
In the first semesters of the bachelor’s programme Media Informatics, you acquire the fundamentals of informatics and natural sciences. Elements of aesthetic and technical media design complement these fundamentals. You learn essential theories and methods as well as how to handle specific tools in practice.
Based on this knowledge, you can broaden and deepen your expertise and skills in advanced modules in digital media topics – particularly digitalisation. You can choose compulsory elective modules according to your interests to create your individual areas of specialisation – e.g. in interactive systems, web applications, secure IT systems, multimedia communication, e-business, communication design, visualisation, media production, computer graphics, mixed and virtual reality.
Within projects each semester, you learn to work together in teams, organise your work and develop media informatics products and applications. Such projects include conception, requirement analysis, planning, design, implementation and testing as well as maintenance and further development. During an external semester, you can work in a company or study abroad. Thus, as a graduate, you have already acquired much of the often expected practical experience.
A dozen experienced professors and lecturers from professional practice teach the courses. They provide excellent supervision of autonomous work in our well-equipped laboratories.
