Overview
Program description:
The objective is to train Software Designers with a professional knowledge based on a solid theoretical background knowledge. They have the skills to take part in program development, in developing information systems and system management in various areas. The Software Designer often acts as a mediator between the customers of information systems and the producers. In this way, the job of a Software Designer synthesises the constructive activity of engineers with the general problem-solving attitude of mathematicians while participating in teams of large-scale projects. The programme provides students with a broad education in Computer Science in combination with specialised work in computer and information processing techniques, programming languages, data structures, information retrieval, operating systems, compiler design etc. Students learn the theory as well as the methodologies and techniques in the development and implementation of computer systems. The more practical programming courses are aided by several courses in pure and applied mathematics and theoretical computer science courses throughout the curriculum.

Entrance exam description:
Decision regarding admission is based on the result of the entrance exam and the academic excellence of previous studies. The latter can be evaluated if the applicant submits his/her Bachelor degree and the trascript of records. The submitted documents shall be examined and evaluated by the Computer Science MSc Admissions Committee. The Commitee needs to be satisfied about the extant knowledge of the applicants, concerning on Informatics and Mathematics. At the same time the applicants have to fulfill an online entry test, solving a programming task and uploading the source code.. Applicants are officially notified by the course coordinator. Admitted students are entitled to start their studies in the subsequent academic semester. In case of failing the repeated exam (that every admitted student has to take) held in Budapest one week before the given semester starts, the student is obliged to take and pass some certain BSc courses in order to acquire knowledge needed for the MSc course

Programme structure
http://csmsc.elte.hu/
The aim of the programmes is to give a broad and widespread literacy in the different fields of computer science; giving the opportunity to meet the latest technologies of software development and teaching awareness-raising theoretical subjects, respectively.
Our programmes are not everybody’ taste. Students who have no strong mathematical background or have no solid knowledge in programming, will find our programs too hard that might lead to failing subjects, and eventually resulting in additional years (and costs) of study to finish the study programme.
Our programmes offer you an education with a high standard and numerous possibilities for research, including international projects involving other universities with outstanding reputation.
