Welcome letter (published 3 weeks before start)

A Master’s degree that covers a broad scope of fields in computer science – with a customed front-edge competence of your own choice.

Computer science includes subjects such as programming, data structures, distributed systems, network technologies, algorithms, and complexity, and the programme has three main directions – IT security, intelligent systems, and distributed and parallel systems. The programme gives you both width in the field of computer science as well as the opportunity to profile your knowledge through elective courses.

Mandatory courses deal with subjects such as machine learning and artificial intelligence, computer system security and software security, but also in multiprocessor systems and performance optimisation.

Focus on research and future security
The programme places great emphasis on research preparation, and the courses focus on aspects close to the research front within computer science and different ways of applying these. The teaching consists of lectures, seminars and laboratories in groups or individually and at the end of the programme, you will conduct a degree project.

Please contact the Admissions Office with any questions regarding the entry requirements.

The programme consists of 120 credits and leads to a two-year Master’s degree.

The tuition fee is SEK 70,000 per semester. One semester corresponds to 30 ECTS credits. EU/EEA citizens are not required to pay fees.

BTH offers a scholarship programme for both prospective students and current students. Learn more about scholarships.
