The FFA for Computer Science programme

The FFA for Computer Science programme, which is only offered for English, provides subject-specific knowledge and skills for computer-science-related degree programmes and occupations.

Entry requirements

You have to:

  1. be enrolled in one of the degree programmes administered by the Faculty of Computer Science and Mathematics
  2. take a placement test prior to registering for the FFA programme

Structure

The FFA programme is split into two levels: Intermediate and Advanced.

Advanced level concludes with the subject-specific language examination for computer science students, or Fachspezifische Fremdsprachenprüfung (FFP) für Informatiker in German. The FFP examination consists of two written examinations — one for each semester — and an oral examination.

Upon successful completion, you will receive a certificate that lists your examination scores and competencies.

Certificates

All transcripts and certificates can be collected from the office of Ms. Ulrike Buchheit (Nikolakloster building, Innstrasse 40) during office hours.
