Master German + English Computer Science

Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies

Master of Science (M.Sc.)

About the Program

Forgery-proof digital verification paves the way from the Internet of digital copies to the Internet of digital originals and values. Blockchain technology is the basis for this. It enables digital identity management, digital currencies, and verifiable digital documentation of transactions, as well as decisions and processes, and it will massively change the state system, the financial sector, the real economy, and society. The master's program combines technical, business and social topics. Students choose four elective modules in each of the first two semesters and are free to choose between technical and non-technical topics. The program is open not only to computer scientists but also to bachelor's graduates from a wide range of other disciplines such as mathematics, forensics, economics and humanities. Programming experience can be helpful, but is not a must.
