Pre-intensive Course for Programming
For the Master programmes Software Engineering and Data Science we have the admission requirement of basic programming skills (3 ECTS). We are offering a pre course in “Programming” in a digital format – as an additional offer for those who do not fulfill the requirement and of course as open programming certificate for everyone.
During the course you will learn the basic principles of object-oriented programming through practical exercises and self-study. You will find out how to declare and use variables and understand the logic of programming. Also, you will master the use of different data types and expand your knowledge of objects and inheritance in Java.
