For the following modules of the Master's Program Computer Science, courses are offered on a regular basis by the professors of the Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics:
-
Lecture "Combinatorial Optimization" (Modulnummer: MA-INF 1102):
This introductory lecture is held every winter term and designed for students in their first semester. It comprises four hours and complementary two-hour exercises per week. -
Lecture "Approximation Algorithms for NP-Hard Problems" (MA-INF 1201):
This four-hour lecture with two hours exercises is offered every summer term and should be attended during the second semester. -
Lecture "Chip Design" (MA-INF 1202)
This four-hour lecture with two-hour exercises is held in the summer term as well. It is designed for students in their second semester. -
"Seminar on Discrete Optimization" (MA-INF 1205):
This seminar is held every summer term and should be attended during the second semester. -
Practical Training "Combinatorial Algorithms" (MA-INF 1207):
This practical training course is devoted to the implementation of combinatorial algorithms. It is offered every summer term and shall be attended during second or fourth semester. -
"Graduate Seminar on Applied Combinatorial Optimization" (MA-INF 1305):
This seminar is offered every winter term and should be attended during the third semester. -
Practical Training "Algorithms for Chip Design" (MA-INF 1308):
This practical training course is offered every winter term and designed for students in their third semester.
Successful participation in the exercises is an absolute requirement for permission for module examination where exercises are offered with the lectures.
The semester numbers mentioned above refer to a start of studies in the winter term. Should you take up studies in the summer term, the modules MA-INF 1201 or MA-INF 1202 are recommended as a start, according to background knowledge.
Of course, it is also possible to set the focus on Discrete Mathematics and to write a master's thesis (MA-INF 0401) at the Research Institute for Discrete Mathematics. Those students who are willing to do so, should contact one of the institute's professors well in time.All courses in the master's program are in English.
This information applies subject to a different decision by the Board of Examiners.
More detailed descriptions of these and all other modules of the Master's Program Computer Science are given in the module handbook.
