The Master's programme in Software is for you who want to take advanced programming, mobile software technology and data-intensive systems to the next level. On the Master's programme, you will get closer to leading research environments and you will have the opportunity to develop your theoretical and practical skills and specialise in exactly what you are passionate about.

With a Master's degree in Software you will:

  • Expand your knowledge and interdisciplinary qualifications in the field
  • Specialize in your areas of interest
  • Be better prepared for the future, job and career

The Master's programme in Software adds several layers to the knowledge and qualifications you have from the Bachelor's degree programme. This also includes a more independent acquisition of the material – not least in connection with your master's thesis.

As a MSc in Software Engineering, you therefore have several strong competencies and greater professional insight within database technology, distributed systems, semantics and verification, machine intelligence, programming technology, etc.

Combined with the demand for specialists in IT, this means that you can look forward to becoming a highly sought-after candidate, whether your goal is a job in the private or public sector or further education in the form of a PhD.
