A New Course of Study leading to a Master of Science
at the Bonn-Aachen International Centre for Information Technology B-IT
Requirements for Admission
The program is open for german and foreign students. For the admission to the program 'Master of Science in Autonomous Systems', a professional academic degree (Bachelor or equivalent) is required in the areas of computer science, mathematics, natural sciences or civil engineering. Candidates who graduated in economic sciences are also eligible for application if their qualification shows a sufficient overlap to computer science. In this case admission will be decided depending on individual qualifications. For these candidates it may become necessary to participate in some additional preparatory computer science courses with an amount of at most 30 ECTS points. All candidates must document their proficiency in English (a TOEFL-score of 550 paper based or of 213 computer based, respectively, or equivalent is required).
Internship
In fulfillment of the research and development part of the Master's program all students are obliged to apply for an internship at the Fraunhofer Institute for Autonomous intelligent Systems (AIS), which is carried out in parallel to the course work. This internship is a prerequisite for the enrolment to the Master's program. Applications for the internship should contain the CV, a statement of purpose and the usual application documents as well as an indication of the areas of expertise and/or interest.
Spirit
An extraordinary level of commitment, self initiative, self-responsibility and ability to work under pressure is expected from the candidates.
Advice
The Master's program is characterized by individual support, guidance towards independent scientific work and by interdisciplinary cooperation in research and development projects.
Degree
After completion of the program, students will receive an internationally recognized academic degree of Master of Science in Autonomous Systems. This degree entitles postgraduates to enter a doctorate program.
Application
Students can start their program in both terms, i.e. winter and summer term. Along with the application for admission a proof of a professional academic degree must be submitted. Those candidates owning an academic degree in a field other than computer science have to submit additional documents containing the topics and results of their finished course work. Applications must be submitted no later than August 15 (to begin the program in the winter term) or February 15 (to begin the program in the in the summer term) of each year to the following postal address:
