Part-time courses in computer science for working professionals

You can take the Computer Science degree programme at the Winterthur and Zurich campuses on a part-time basis. The programme contents are fundamentally identical to the full-time programme, with 180 ECTS credits.

The part-time programme is designed in such a way as to provide the best possible support for students who are in employment. The timetable is scheduled compactly and credits can be awarded for the student’s professional activity.
