The goal of this program is to train Computer Scientist 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 Computer Scientist often acts as a mediator between the customers of information systems and the producers. In this way, the job of a Computer Scientist synthesizes the constructive activity of engineers with the general problem-solving attitude of mathematicians while participating in teams of large-scale projects. Our programs provide students with a broad education in Computer Science in combination with specialized work in programming languages, cyber security, data science, web engineering, autonomous systems, multimedia 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.
Software Designers are welcome in every sector of informatics. Jobs are offered by large international computer companies, outstanding firms, banks, large enterprises, state institutions, software development companies, research institutes and universities where they may be engaged in the preparation of integrated data processing systems, electronic trade transactions and electronic money transfers, solving telecommunication problems (networks, programming mobile phones), performing image recognition, computer-aided design, image processing or preparing multimedia applications.
Data science is a highly innovative area. Social media, manufacturing systems, medical devices, logistic services, and countless others generate petabytes of data on a daily basis. The data scientist simultaneously masters scalable data management, data analysis and domain area expertise to extract key knowledge and solve real-world problems.
Cybersecurity is also a burgeoning field for the design and development of new products and services. Graduates will easily find jobs within companies that provide value-added products and services, such as telecom companies, game companies, e-learning, web developers, and the entertainment industry.

Further comments: At least Intermediate level English language skills is required. English language exams are preferred (but not required) and any certificate is accepted.
The interview takes about 20 minutes in the previously indicated and scheduled time sent by the student coordinator via e-mail.
As the language of the education of the Computer Science Master course of ELTE Faculty of Informatics is English, applicants are required to possess at least intermediate level English language proficiency in order to take part efficiently of their academic studies. During the interview applicants are required to prove their English language and communicational skills by replying to questions about their previous studies, work experiences connected to Computer Science. Applicants are also required to answer simple questions concerning basic terms in mathematics and programming.
As the prerequisite of applying to Computer Science Master course is a previously obtained Bachelor degree in Computer Science or in a related field, no preparation is needed in advance, applicants are only have to be able to present their previously obtained skills.
After accepting the invitation, previously sent by the programme coordinator, applicants are required to create a Canvas account. After logging in, exam exercises are available in Canvas system. There is no exact exam date, applicants are able to take the exam and submit their solutions whenever they want until the indicated deadline.
The exam consists of 1-3 programming problems. Solutions (program source codes in Java, C# or C/C++) are required to be submitted online.
The ranking is based on a total evaluation of the academic excellence (based on the submitted documents) and the results of the entrance exam.
Welcome to our student placement program dedicated to helping international students find their way to the best universities in Hungary.
