Why choose this programme?

Computer systems are part of all parts of society, and it is important that someone develops and maintains them, understands them and ensures that they are designed to maximize their benefit and that they are not abused.

The Master's program Informatics: Programming and System Architecture includes system development, programming, data communication, distributed systems and information security. With a master's degree in Informatics: programming and system architecture, you understand the whole of such systems and the theories they are based on.

You can help develop and maintain such systems and you have profound knowledge within one of the sub-areas of the program.

You can choose between two specializations:
