Practice & Profession

The Alumni Day is a one-day event in the summer semester. It gives Bachelor and Master students from the various computer science degree programs an insight into everyday working life in the IT sector. With exciting presentations and demonstrations, graduates of Computer Science Tübingen pass on their experiences to the students regarding career entry and can also introduce their employer. Afterwards, there will be a small fair with company stands and the opportunity for a relaxed chat.

The following information is valid for all computer science programs:

• During Bachelor studies, entering an internship before the end of your fourth semester is counterproductive to your studies.
• For the approval of a semester of leave for the purpose of a Computer Science related internship, you must have accrued 72 credits or more until the end of your third semester, 63 of which must come from mandatory modules.
• A transcript of records as well as a written description of the internship by the company or institution that offers the internshio must be presented to the dean of studies for Computer Science well in advance for your application to be approved.

During the semester, the lecture series “Informatik meets Industry” offers exciting insights into current topics in computer science from the perspective of companies. After an approx. one-hour block of lectures, there will be an opportunity for further informal discussions with the lecturers with pizza and cold drinks.

The “Tübingen Software Project” ran from April 2015 to March 2020. It enabled students to gain insight into real software projects while still studying. Working in teams, students spent a year working on a project provided by our industry partners.

Currently no further industry projects are planned.
