Computer Science and Informatics Studies, Roskilde University
Autumn Semester 2014

Courses and project works offered in this semester
Preliminary list!!

 

The following computer science courses and project works are offered in English and are open for all exchange and guest students.

Most 7.5 ECTS courses in spring semesters run from the start of September until mid/late November. These courses each take up a full day each week, and some overlap in time is unavoidable; the detailed schedule is announced in the start of the semester. The courses labelled "Advanced course" below run full-time the last 4 weeks of the semester starting immediately after the other courses have finished. Exams for the autumn semester typically take place in January.

Not all combinations of choices are possible, so check very carefully the web page on How to put together your own study program. When you click links to detailed descriptions below, you will find courses marked as Bachelor or Master level courses; this is how they are classified at Roskilde, but for exchange and guest students we can select from both levels to make the best, individual program - independently of whether you study for Bachelor or Master at your home university.

Courses are marked by level, bac (bachelor) and master, but depending on your detailed background you may possibly take a bac course as part of you master and vice-versa.
