Today’s rapid technological development means that the demand for high-level competence in the IT field is growing. The Master’s Programme in Computer and Systems Sciences provides students with an opportunity to develop their skills and knowledge in relevant areas in preparation for a successful professional or research career. Within the programme, there are a number of recommended specialisation tracks to choose from. For example, students interested in contributing to a more sustainable and less vulnerable information society can select the “Information security” track. Students interested in managing globally distributed teams developing IT services can select the “Global delivery model” track. Students who would rather focus on the construction and design of, for example, mobile services, may choose the “Human computer interaction design” track. Additional specialisations are amongst others the tracks “Information and knowledge systems design” and “Business intelligence”. Students may also go outside the specialisation tracks and combine different courses to tailor their education to their specific needs. The programme provides students with a deeper knowledge of theories and methods, and also practical skills in the area or areas they have chosen. In addition, the programme includes general courses on scientific communication and research methodology that prepare students for thesis work and a possible research career.
