The “Programming” preparatory course is designed for anyone who would like to gain some initial programming experience before the start of their regular studies or semester. For Business Information Systems students, it can be a particularly helpful preparation, as the required course “Object-Oriented and Functional Programming (OFP)” follows in the summer semester. This applies especially to students who have no prior knowledge from school or their free time. |
Note for international students: Before the start of the lecture period, the Department of International Student Affairs offers an orientation session for Erasmus+ students and international first-year students. [More information]
