Talented students have also a chance to attend our special Honor's Program. This special support shall enable them to earn an Honor's Degree, to finish their studies in less than the regular time and/or to give them the opportunity to prepare for a PhD project while still being in the Masters Program. |
| 2. One of the best sites for computer science students |
| Comparisons and rankings have shown that our scientists rank highest nationwide regarding teaching personnel per student and computer equipment. Moreover, Saarbruecken is very attractive for those who want to study fast and for those who are interested in research and a scientific career. More information |
| 3. Internationality all inclusive |
Saarland University was the first University in Germany who completely shifted its computer science programs to Bachelor/Master structure. Nearly all lectures of our master program are held in English. Thus, German students are very well prepared for their future international working field. We offer also the opportunity to study abroad, e.g. within the "Stanford Cooperation". |
| 4. The best ratio teaching personnel per student |
| Only four students have to share one researcher (professor or junior scientist). No long waiting time for practical courses or seminars. Because a lot of scientist work at the computer science department or in the research institutes nearby, you will have a lot of possibilities to work in the research groups, not only while writing your thesis.

| 5. Computer Science and links to other disciplines |
| You do not want to specialize on pure computer science? What about bioinformatics,
business information systems, computational linguistics, law related computer science, or a lot of choosable secondary subjects? Perhaps mathematics, information sciences,
medical technology, physics, etc.? Further information |
| 6. Among the best computer science scientists |
| Different studies and rankings have shown that our scientists rank highest nationwide regarding third-party funds per professor and in the international citation index, which shows the big impact Computer Science Saarland has. |
| 7. The Max Planck Institute for Computer Science and the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems |
| Both Max Planck Institutes working on computer science topics are located on the Campus of Saarland University in direct neighborhood to the computer science department. |
| 8. The German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence (DFKI). |
| This research institute works very closely to industry and SMEs, but nevertheless it has strong bindings to the university. |
| 9. The most important scientific awards |
| Members of our faculties and research institutes have gained distinguished scientific awards such as the German Future Award, Leibniz Awards and Konrad-Zuse-Medals (Survey). At our institutes or faculties one can cooperate with international successful scientists. |
| 10. The Saarland |
| In the heart of Europe lies Saarland, a German state that has France and Luxembourg as its neighbors, in a "triangle of nations" also known as "Saar-Lor-Lux". To find new friends in Saarland is not very difficult.
