Studies, research and careers in the heart of Europe
At Saarland Informatics Campus (SIC) all teaching and research activities related to Saarbrücken computer science come together: Five internationally renowned research institutes and three networked departments of the Saarland University with three collaborative research centers combine their individual strengths and competencies to cover the entire spectrum of Cover computer science in 16 research fields and offer 18 joint degree programs.
The success story and the research excellence have been based on interdisciplinary collaboration and mutual support from the very beginning and are supported by numerous highly motivated minds at SIC. In 1969, the state government offered Günter Hotz, a university lecturer in mathematics at Saarland University, the first regular chair for "Applied Mathematics and Computer Science" - a milestone in establishing IT research in Germany. The German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence was founded here in 1988, the Max Planck Institute for Computer Science in 1990, the Bioinformatics Center ten years later, the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems in 2004, the Cluster of Excellence and the Graduate School in 2007, and two years later Intel Visual Computing Institute and in 2011 today's CISPA Helmholtz Center for Information Security. International seminars and workshops in the nearby Schloss Dagstuhl complement the research activities at SIC.
Around 2,000 students, 800 scientists - including more than 300 doctoral students - from over 80 nations make the SIC a first-class location for IT.
