Im Wahlmodulbereich kannst Du frei aus dem Angebot der Universität wählen. Auch die Wahl eines Sprachkurses oder ein Auslandsaufenthalt sind möglich und wünschenswert.
Mit Deinem Bachelor-Modul (Bachelor-Arbeit + Verteidigung) schließt Du das Informatik-Studium ab. Nach erfolgreicher Verteidigung verleiht Dir die Bauhaus-Universität Weimar den Abschluss »Bachelor of Science«.
Den detaillierten Aufbau des Studiums findest du im Curriculum.
Weitere Informationen zu den Formalitäten des Studiums regeln die Studien- und Prüfungsordnungen. Allgemeine Beschreibungen zu Inhalten und Lernzielen der Module findest du im Modulkatalog.
In the second half of your study programme, you will take elective modules that you are free to select from the courses offered at the university. Selection of a language course or stay abroad is possible and encouraged; this is also supported by the faculty.
The Bachelor’s degree in Informatics concludes with a dissertation module. You will prepare an academic thesis and present your findings during an oral defence (open to members of the university). The course tutors are on hand at all times for consultations. After successfully defending your dissertation, the university will award you a »Bachelor of Science« (B.Sc.) qualification.
