Innovative software systems are the driving force behind many exciting developments in society, industry, and science. A thorough knowledge of computer science is necessary to design such systems, to make sure they function correctly, efficiently and securely, to analyze their properties, and to understand their possibilities and limitations.  A degree in computer science from Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) offers you an excellent starting point for a career as a computer-science engineer or researcher in this exciting and fast-moving field.

Our educational programs are based on our research excellence in four areas: Algorithms and Visualization, Information Systems, Model-Driven Software Engineering, and Security and Embedded Networked Systems. We have strong ties with industry and with other departments within and outside TU/e, leading to a variety of Master and post-Master programs that offer ample opportunities to both application-oriented and theoretically-inclined students.

Within the Computer Science graduate program of the TU/e Graduate School, the following programs are available. We offer three Master's programs: Computer Science and Engineering (with a special track on Information Security Technology), Business Information Systems, and Embedded Systems. All Master's programs offer an Honors Program, which is a challenging research-oriented program for the most talented students.

Within the Master's programs Computer Science and Engineering, and Embedded Systens, we offer EIT ICT Labs – ICT Innovation, with two special tracks: Service Design and Engineering, and Embedded Systems.

The Designer's program (also named PDEng program) and PhD program are our two post master's programs.The two-year PDEng program is design oriented, and prepares for a career as software designer or architect in IT industry. The four-year PhD program is research oriented, and prepares for a career in academia or an industrial research lab.
