Cooperative Studies:

  • You can also study Software Design as a degree programme with in-depth practical experience. This means that you complete additional practical phases in a company during the semester break. This allows you to gain practical and professional experience during your studies and earn your own money. You will also have secured your place for the practical semester and your Bachelor's thesis. All you have to do is apply to a company of your choice. Ask the university for advice. You can find all the information you need on the cooperative studies programme page.

 


career prospects

With us, you can be who you want and become what you want. Whether it's environmental protection, the economy, health, research or something completely different:
The career opportunities are as individual as you are. 

Software designers play a crucial and versatile role in the entire life cycle of software projects, from brainstorming to realisation and maintenance.

At the beginning of this journey, you are first and foremost an analyst. You dive deep into the needs of users, explore their requirements and develop a vision for software that exceeds their expectations. Then you become a digital architect! You not only write code, but also create stories in the form of user-friendly software solutions. You design the digital landscape, create structures, interfaces and data models. There is room for creativity and strategy here - you form the foundations for a solution that not only works, but also helps shape the future of technology. After that, you are a translator, translating your master plans into code. A maker, after all!

In the world of software design, you are also an artist: in the user interface. You shape the interaction between man and machine, create intuitive designs and optimise the user experience. Are you a perfectionist? Very good! Because the quality of your work comes first. Like a detective, you search for errors and ensure that your creations meet the highest standards and function smoothly and flawlessly.

But you are not alone. Software design also means being a team player. You work hand in hand with developers, testers and project managers to create a digital masterpiece. And your journey doesn't stop after implementation - you remain a guardian of the software world. You monitor performance, carry out updates and are on hand when bugs need to be fixed.

You realise that your work is not just a job, but a constant and varied adventure that shapes and transforms the digital space. Don't worry - you will acquire the skills for all of this during your practice-orientated degree course. Here, innovation is not only created on the screen, but also in the minds of visionary software designers like you.
And the best thing is: Where you use your extensive skills after graduation is entirely up to you, because software design is everywhere.
