Lucerne School Of Computer Science And Information Technology
Rotkreuz, Switzerland
The Master of Science in Engineering offers you the opportunity to specialize in the fields of Computer Science, Cyber Security or Data Science at the Lucerne School of Computer Science and Information Technology. You will have an advisor assigned to you who matches your profile and will support you throughout your studies and help you to develop a curriculum tailored to your needs. In addition to acquiring theoretical knowledge, you will advance your skills and knowledge through practical projects.
The Master of Science in Engineering is a joint offering by the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts with other Swiss universities of applied sciences. The program is equivalent to 90 ECTS credits. One third of the modules are classic lectures, while two-thirds are specific to the chosen specialization and include research projects and supplementary events. Together with your advisor, you will create a module program according to your interests. There are three categories of lecture modules, a certain number of which must be chosen from each category: technical-scientific modules (min. 12 ECTS), advanced theoretical foundations (min. 9 ECTS) and context modules (min. 6 ECTS). A total of 30 ECTS credits must be selected from this module group.
Specialization: Two specialization projects worth 12 and 18 ECTS and the final master's thesis worth 30 ECTS. You will complete the specialization at the Lucerne School of Computer Science and Information Technology in Rotkreuz, supporting your advisor’s current research and development projects. You will jointly define the specific design of these projects with your advisor. It is possible to reduce specialization projects in scope and combine them with supplementary events (SEs) instead.
There are no fixed time models; you will create your curriculum with your advisor according to your needs. You are required to complete the master's program within seven semesters. We recommend you work no more than 0.6 FTE during your studies. Ask your advisor about open assistant positions at the School of Computer Science and Information Technology.
