Computer Science Pre-course

For those of you who consider taking CS courses please take a look at the following pre-course: http://panta-rhei.kwarc.info/index.php?login=init

If you are interested in Computer Science and are going to take a Computer Science course sometimes during your study, you should visit this course since it provides you with some necessary fundamentals! Its aim is to raise awareness as to what degree of mathematical competence is required for successfully completing the Computer Science Program at Jacobs University. In this respect, the pre-course wants to serve as a tool for self-assessment for potential students like you.

But the pre-course is not only about assessing one's skills in mathematics!Mathematics -- and thus also the CS pre-course -- is also fun. The topics covered in this pre-course are intellectually challenging, but this should only motivate you and deepen your interest in mathematical problems, including but certainly not limited to for instance the Bridges of Koenigsberg, the Towers of Hanoi, and many other fascinating puzzles and riddles.

If you indicated your interest in CS on your application you should have received a login already, otherwise please contact c.mueller@jacobs-university.de to get one.
