The Bachelor’s programme Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) teaches you to comprehend technical and scientific problems e.g. in the areas of strength, vibration, flow, electrochemistry, electrical engineering and biomechanics. You will also learn how to model those problems mathematically, how to simulate and optimise them with the help of modern simulation software and how to evaluate simple simulation results and validate them by comparison to experiments. You will be able to contribute in production-related capacities in small or medium-sized businesses. With this research-oriented education you will have the potential to independently work on innovations in product development and optimisation.

All students of the study/degree programme, alumni and business representatives, teaching staff, programme directors and study advisors meet at the Science Centre Schloss Reisensburg to further develop the quality of the study/degree programme, for networking and team building, to equalise the examination density and to exchange ideas with company representatives.
The Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) programme is based on three pillars:
with the interdisciplinary area: modelling and simulation
Alternative forms of examination to reduce the examination load
Mobility window in the 5th semester
Compulsory internship, work placement of at least three months, extendable to six or nine months
Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering are the pillars of the degree programme. The cooperation between the University and Ulm University of Applied Sciences combines scientific depth with practical application.
The best possible training; education and personal support are our top priorities.
Practical issues are dealt with in a number of courses (Practical SiSo, Project in CSE, MoSi, etc.). Close connection with the Scientific Computing Centre Ulm (UZWR). A 3-month internship, work placement is compulsory, which can be extended to 6 or 9 months.
Nowadays, innovative products are increasingly created with the help of sophisticated computer systems, Mathematics modelling and simulation, as conducting experiments is expensive or often not possible. The need for well-trained experts in modelling and simulation will therefore continue to increase.
Further qualification is possible through the planned consecutive master's programme in Computational Science and Engineering as well as through various master's programmes from the disciplines involved.
Possible appointments could be

A great way to broaden your horizons in a discipline is to study at a foreign university. Students on the CSE study/degree programme can apply for one or two semesters abroad at numerous universities, both throughout Europe as part of the ERASMUS programme and outside Europe. If lectures are not required, internships and theses at other universities are also possible.
Ulm University has exchange agreements with over 100 universities in 26 countries. CSE students can also choose from the programmes offered by Ulm University of Applied Sciences.

Verena, 23 years old, student in her 6th semester
I particularly like the interdisciplinary nature of the CSE study/degree programme! It gives me the opportunity to study a wide range of different areas, such as artificial intelligence, Medical Engineering or sustainable energy generation.
Stefanie, 22 years old, 3rd semester student
I chose the CSE programme because I wanted to study something Mathematics with a lot of application relevance. The combination of university and THU offers us an ideal balance between theory and practice. Another decisive factor in my decision was the wealth of projects on offer from the very first semester, which makes the degree programme less "dry".
