Applied natural science
The degree programme
The Applied Science degree programme comprises the three disciplines of physics, chemistry and biotechnology. It combines a broad general scientific education with application-oriented research and aims to develop interdisciplinary skills and solution strategies.
The Bachelor's degree programme teaches a broad scientific foundation with a high level of practical relevance. For example, biologists who have also attended lectures in quantum theory are trained in this way. And physicists who have studied the oxygen production of algae. The degree programme thus enables students to quickly familiarise themselves with complex interdisciplinary issues and recognise causal relationships. In later professional life, the knowledge acquired can then be easily transferred to a variety of other problems.
Lateral entry into the teaching profession
The degree programme has been optimised to allow lateral entry into the teaching profession at secondary schools in Saxony after successful completion of the Bachelor's degree and the Master's degree in Applied Natural Science in the specialisations A "Environmental Biotechnology Analytics" or B "Solid State Physics".

Applied computer science
The degree programme
The Bachelor's degree programme provides a comprehensive understanding of applied computer science, supplemented by practical, theoretical and technical computer science - including algorithms and data structures, development of software systems and information and communication technologies. The fundamentals of engineering mathematics to the necessary extent and intensive familiarisation with an application subject lead to an excellent professional qualification: the design and implementation of modern information and communication systems are the key qualifications that are in high demand in all industries.
Based on other core computer science topics - including distributed software, artificial intelligence, computer graphics - the Master's degree programme offers an in-depth scientific qualification, particularly in the fields of virtual reality, high-performance computing and complex IT systems and artificial intelligence.
Lateral entry into the teaching profession
The new mathematics application subject integrated into the Bachelor's degree programme has been optimised to enable lateral entry into the teaching profession at secondary schools in Saxony after successfully completing a Master's degree.
