Computational visualistics
Computer visualistics is a course of study offered at the universities of Magdeburg and Koblenz-Landau as well as at the Hamm-Lippstadt University of Applied Sciences . It was first set up in 1996 at the University of Magdeburg on the initiative of Thomas Strothotte .
Content
The Computer Visualistics course is interdisciplinary. His focus is on the computer-aided creation and evaluation of graphics and images as well as their integration into complex applications. In addition to the computer science subjects, sub-areas of psychology, medicine, design, architecture and materials science are also part of the course.
Bachelor degree
The aim of the bachelor's degree in the Computational Visualistics course is to impart sound, scientific basic knowledge in the image-related aspects of computer science, as well as scientific penetration and, at the same time, job-market and profession-oriented processing in the applications of computer visualistics and a deepening in selected focuses of computer visualistics and its application subjects to achieve.
Master's degree
The specific goals in the Master’s degree in Computational Visualistics include the opportunity to delve into the pillars of the Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Computational Visualistics (in the narrower sense, i.e. image analysis, computer graphics, ...), General Visualistics and the application subject, whereby at least one focus must be chosen from the field of computer science. The courses are research-oriented, have a high proportion of self-study and are therefore particularly geared towards preparing students for the master’s thesis and for an activity with a high degree of autonomy.
