The next revolution in Computing Science

Every revolutionary algorithm, every elegant line of code, was once just an idea. You are the next revolution. Choose from five Master's specialisations where your computational thinking evolves into transformative solutions. Launch your future career at Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands.

Master's specialisations

Cyber Security

As our society's reliance on IT increases, cyber security grows in importance. In this specialisation, you learn how to assess the security of existing ICT systems, and how to develop more secure future solutions.

Cyber Security and AI

The interplay between AI and Cyber Security provides solutions to many real-world problems, but also brings new challenges. In this unique specialisation, you will learn to understand the latest approaches of the interaction between both domains.

Data Science and AI

Data plays a role in almost every scientific discipline, the corporate sector and social organisations. This specialisation will teach you how to transform data into knowledge and solutions using modern machine learning and AI techniques.

Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science

The Master's specialisation of Mathematical Foundations of Computer Science (MFoCS) is all about understanding the fundamental mathematical concepts of computation and information, to explore the potentials of computer science. 

Software Science

Software plays a role in almost every aspect of our daily lives and in every organisation across the globe. This specialisation focuses on analysing and testing of code in order to both improve and simplify it.
