The Bachelor of Science in Computer Science programme is designed to teach you how to use computer science to solve real-world problems. You'll learn a structured approach to engineering systems, focusing on the steps of analysing, planning, designing, and building complex computer systems. You'll also discover how to organise the development process effectively. Moreover, you will gain practical knowledge about modern operating systems, computer architecture, and networks.
- How it is organised
- In the fourth and fifth semesters, you will have the chance to concentrate on two specialisations based on your personal interests. This allows you to further customise your studies and gain a deeper understanding of the subjects that interest you most.

From your country
General requirements for bachelor's applicants. Rules change — confirm with the university and your local German mission.
🇮🇳 Applying from India
- An APS India certificate is mandatory before your visa appointment — processing takes weeks, so start it the day you decide to apply.
- Budget for the blocked account (€11,904 for one year in 2026 — verify the current amount with the German Embassy).
- IELTS/TOEFL is typically required; some universities accept a Medium-of-Instruction letter — check the official program page.
🇳🇬 Applying from Nigeria
- Proof of funds is usually a blocked account; open it early — transfers and verification take time.
- WAEC/NECO results are assessed via uni-assist for most universities; a Studienkolleg year may be required for bachelor's entry.
- Visa appointment slots in Lagos and Abuja book out months ahead — book as soon as you have an admission letter.
🇻🇳 Applying from Vietnam
- APS Vietnam certification applies to Vietnamese applicants — schedule the document check before university deadlines.
- Most universities want IELTS 6.0–6.5 for English-taught programs; requirements vary by program.
- Plan finances around the blocked account plus health insurance — both are checked at the visa stage.
🇧🇩 Applying from Bangladesh
- Document verification is strict: keep certificates, transcripts, and bank papers consistent and genuine — discrepancies sink applications.
- The blocked account is the standard proof of funds. You do not need an admission letter to open one, so set it up alongside your applications.
- Apply to several programs in parallel — visa processing in Dhaka can be slow, and an early admission letter buys you time.
Living in Cologne
A million people on the Rhine, a cathedral you can see from the lecture hall, three public universities and a long list of specialist and private schools.
Cologne is the biggest city in North Rhine-Westphalia and the one with the loudest personality: about 1.03 million people, a Roman founding date of AD 50, a Gothic cathedral that took 632 years to finish, and its own dialect, its own beer and its own…
