Master of Science in Computer Science | Master's degree | Computer Science & IT | On Campus | 2 years | Vrije Universiteit Brussel | Belgium
Do you already have an academic bachelor in Computer Science and would you like to work towards an even deeper scientific understanding and knowledge? Then our master in Computer Science is the Program you’re looking for! The two-year Program has a broad scope, but also offers a wide variety of highly specialised elective courses. As such, it actively prepares students for positions in scientific research and in state-of-the-art development projects.
Strong embedding in ongoing research
Our courses and specialisations are strongly embedded in the ongoing activities of research groups that are each specialised in a particular domain of computer science. The groups publish in international journals and at international conferences, and participate in international research networks and projects. Master students carry out at least half of their studies within one of these groups. By being part of a professional research team, students have the best opportunities to learn and develop scientific skills, and to participate in world-class research. The groups also have experience in developing research trajectories with societal and economic impact. They have implemented an active policy in technology and knowledge transfer, patenting, spin-off creation, industrial collaboration, and innovation.
This master's Program is jointly organised by two departments, the Department of Computer Science at the Faculty of Sciences and the Department of Electronics at the Department of Engineering. Together, they employ more than 200 researchers, who cover a wide range of research topics.
