Founded on the idea of empowering people to succeed in a digital world, the International University of Applied Sciences first came into existence in 1998. And since receiving accreditation from the German Council of Science and Humanities, IU’s grown into Germany’s biggest university. The university's mission is to create inclusive, global and wholly accessible education.

IUAS is one of Germany's leading private Universities of Applied Sciences. IU International University of Applied Sciences place a strong emphasis on quality. That is why all of the institution's study programs are state-approved, bears the seal of German Accreditation Council and are globally recognised.

Computer Science is undergoing rapid change and allows you to be at the cutting edge of technological advancements. Digital development and other IT topics such as big data will have a huge impact on the future of our society, which means that experts in this field are in great demand. Whether you have IT or an industry that uses IT in mind, the BSc Computer Science programme will teach you all the knowledge and skills you need for a successful start in the IT job market.

One particular focus of the BSc Computer Science programme is software engineering. This is currently the most important sub-discipline of computer science, and it can be applied in many jobs across a wide range of industries. You'll build a broad knowledge base complemented by courses like cyber security, data science, and artificial intelligence. Enhance your career with additional skills in data security, project management, and IT law.
