The master's programme in Signal Processing and Computing at Aalborg University focuses on theories, methods and algorithms for advanced signal processing applied to a variety of application domains, such as wireless communication, speech recognition, hearing aids, positioning, gaming, audio and video, and health care.

The courses taught during the programme all provide you with the tools and knowledge necessary for designing and implementing up-to-date signal processing applications and platforms.... [-]

Do you find satellites, collaborating robots, safety-critical networks between cars and fighting cyber terrorism interesting? Do you want to master advanced technology and obtain a strong technical competence profile, while also learning about teamwork? And would you like to combine theory with practice? Then you should consider the Networks and Distributed Systems (NDS) program at Aalborg University.

MSc in Software Development

Software Development gives you access to cutting-edge knowledge in software design, programming languages, databases, distributed systems, artificial intelligence, algorithms, software development processes, requirements, organization, and management.

The program gives you the opportunity to work with all phases of the development process – analysis, design, development, test, and launch, and you will learn how to design and program software systems of all scales, from mobile applications to web-based business solutions.

The program has an international perspective and is therefore taught in English

The programThe study program is open both to students with an undergraduate degree in computer science or software development and to graduates from other study areas. Whether you hold a bachelor in computer science, or in business and marketing, we help you to grow research level expertise in software science.... [-]

To be accepted into the master’s programme in Computer science, you need to complete a relevant bachelor programme.The Computer science programme gives you a broad knowledge of information technology focussed on algorithmic techniques which form the basis for developing effective and secure modern software solutions. It also emphasises principles which will also be relevant in the next decade.In the master’s programme in Computer science, you continue developing your insight into scientific theories and methods, your experience with working independently with complex problems (business related or scientific questions) as well as your ability to express yourself clearly on academic subjects and mediate these to others.The master’s programme thus qualifies you to participate in scientific works and independently undertake business functions based on these abilities.The scientific aspect of the master’s programme is most evident in the final thesis project which lasts a year. Work on the project is done in close contact with a supervisor and often in connection with the supervisor’s own research.It must be said, though, that the master’s programme is not a research degree as such. To achieve these credentials, one must complete a PhD.A large part of the programme consists of a free choice of courses. The selection of these is updated every quarter. The end result is that you can piece together a very focused degree, regardless of whether you aim for the business sector or teaching and research in Computer science.... [-]

Master of Engineering - Software Engineering (MSc)

As an MSc in Software Engineering, you will work with the development of future intelligent products that will make life easier for the users. You can, for instance, become a software developer, IT and systems architect or project manager. You can develop mobile apps, IT security and online solutions.

A full master of science in engineering degree is a three-year bachelor degree combined with a two-year master programme. Half of your study comprises elective courses, a bachelor project and your master thesis. Moreover, it is possible to go abroad for one or two semesters.

Study environment

Each year more than 1500 international students from all over the world choose to study at the University of Southern Denmark, so you will become part of a lively international student environment.We believe that engineers of today must have a global perspective and experience and we encourage international as well as Danish students to spend one or two semesters abroad on an internship or as exchange students.Faculty of Engineering has adopted a student-centred approach to learning, and teaching is based on problem-based project work. Students participate significantly in class and carry out project work in small teams.... [-]

Students in the MSc in Computer Engineering can specialise in relevant fields of study connected with system and instrument development involving software, hardware, and communication technology. Depending on your chosen specialisation, upon completion of the degree, you will be awarded the title of either Master of Science in Engineering (Computer Engineering) or Master of Science and Technology (Computer Engineering).

Your teachers will be researchers from the Department of Engineering and Department of Computer Science, as well as lecturers and development engineers at the Aarhus University School of Engineering. The degree programme thus benefits from research and development projects carried out in all three environments.... [-]

Whether your interest is in complex algorithms, IT security, logic and semantics, pervasive computing, or something completely different within the field of computer science, this programme will give you the opportunity to specialise in an area of your choice.

Quality teaching in an informal setting

The Master’s programme in Computer Science is dedicated to the highest-quality teaching in an informal learning environment. Our international teaching staff expect students to take an active part in the programme, and staff-student consultation is always encouraged. The teaching is a mix of lectures and classes, with preparatory work in study groups.... [-]
