The Institute of Computer Science is part of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz. We research how computers work and help students to learn computer science.
Computer science deals with computers, programs and data. We investigate how computers solve problems and how they can be improved.
There are various teams at the institute that deal with important topics in computer science. These include the development of smart computing methods, the storage and analysis of large amounts of data and the recognition of patterns by computers. We also research how computers can become even faster and how computer science can be explained in an understandable way. Our work helps in many areas, for example in technology, mathematics and education.
We offer degree programs in computer science and support students with important information. This includes:
- which courses are available
- how to plan for exams
- Opportunities for a semester abroad
Our student advisory service helps with questions about studying and planning.
