Computer Science Szechenyi Istvan University

Overview

The Computer Science program from Szechenyi Istvan University prepares the students to scientific research in international research and innovation teams, development work in industry, and/or professional work in industry and other sectors.

A key element of the programme is the support of research and innovation activities. Students have a compulsory course in research methodology in the first semester, and can select Innovation and research communication courses as free elective subjects, which aim the preparation of a scientific publication.

Compulsory internship provides valuable work experience. Students can find positions in international research and innovation projects (see e.g. HiDALGO2- project), in university competence centres, or in companies in artificial intelligence, automotive industry and other sectors. Two semester thesis work can be linked with the internship via solving real industrial and research challenges with the support of internal and external supervisors.
