Mathematics with Computer Science, B.Sc.
The bachelor's degree provides mathematical knowledge closely related to applications in business, technology and nature. Graduates are enabled to understand such problems, to model them with mathematical methods, to analyze them, to solve them and to interpret them in a real context. The necessary knowledge in dealing with computers and software is imparted in the context of internships and lectures on computer science.

Programme selection →About the programme
In the Bachelor's degree in mathematics with computer science, students are taught mathematical (basic) knowledge, knowledge of processes and techniques that are important in practice from mathematics and computer science, and the necessary methodological tools. The main focus is on mathematics with around 60% of the courses.

A graduate of the course is in principle open to the traditionally broad professional field of mathematicians and computer scientists. This course of study enables early entry into professional life and a strong modularization in the course.

This allows the individual student to react flexibly to the situation on the job market as well as to his personal life situation. To make this clear, only some of the possible scenarios are outlined here:
- After completing a three-year bachelor's degree, student A has acquired sufficient knowledge about the use of mathematics and computer science, has finished his studies and is applying for a position in business. He may already have contacts with a company due to his project during his studies. In any case, given the current labor market situation and due to his low starting age, he has a good chance of a job.
- Student B is interested in completing part of his studies abroad. He receives a bachelor's degree at the University of Greifswald and then applies to a foreign university for a degree in mathematics or computer science to deepen his knowledge
- Student C is of the opinion that he would like to pursue an activity that requires prior knowledge of several subject areas. That is why he acquires a bachelor's degree in mathematics with computer science and then complements his training in the university or non-university area (knowledge of administration, personnel management, languages, business administration, ...).
- After 3 years of bachelor's degree, student D recognizes his particular inclination and ability to deal with tasks from mathematics and / or computer science, switches to the master’s degree in mathematics and then looks for a job in industrial or state-funded research.
Due to the rapid pace at which the labor market is currently changing nationally and internationally, many young people today find it difficult to decide on a degree with a standard period of study of nine or ten semesters, because it is simply impossible to foresee the job situation in five or six years at all.
The bachelor's degree meets the needs of these people. In conjunction with the master’s degree in mathematics, the generally required and necessary flexibility and differentiation in the training system can be increased. The short training period of the Bachelor is fully in line with the international trend and improves the career opportunities of the graduates on the European job market.

The procedure and the set of documents depend on your certificate. We check the university's requirements against your documents and give you a list: what to submit, how to certify and translate it, where and when to apply.
Check the requirementsHow to get into this programme
- 1Check your certificate and its recognitionDirect admission, a year at a university at home, or Studienkolleg first — this decides the whole plan.
- 2German up to C1 and a certificateDSH or TestDaF has to be passed before you apply.
- 3Documents and translationsCertified translations of the certificate and transcript, an APS if required. 3–4 weeks.
- 4Application via uni-assist until 15.07uni-assist checks documents for 4–6 weeks — send them well before the deadline.
- 5Admission, visa, movingPlan 2–3 months for the visa and the blocked account in parallel.
How to apply
You can submit the application yourself or with our help — the university decides on admission in both cases.
Applications go through the university's portal or uni-assist. Typical mistakes:
- ×incorrectly made certified copies and translations
- ×a wrong set of documents
- ×the application submitted the wrong way
- ×errors or gaps in the application form
- ×the application submitted at the wrong time — too early or too late
An incomplete or incorrectly prepared application is excluded from the selection — it can no longer be corrected after the deadline.
StudyInFocus does not represent the university and does not influence the admission decision. We do not sell study places and do not guarantee admission — this is a service for preparing and submitting documents on the applicant's side.
If your level is not enough yet
The two most common stoppers are a language level below the requirement and a certificate without direct admission. Both can be solved, but they take months — plan them now, not after a rejection.
