Computer Science

The Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science (LIACS) is a partner in the Lorentz Center, an international research centre for astronomy, computer science, mathematics, physics and bio-sciences. The centre has extensive international contacts and excellent connections with other Dutch university research groups, as well as with Dutch industry. An individually tailored programme will be designed for each student. LIACS offers five different specialisations in this MSc programme. Three tracks are dedicated to the specialisations of the Institute: Core computer technologies; Computer science theory and advanced technologies; and Bioinformatics. The other two tracks combine at least one year of the computer science curriculum with training in which specific career opportunities in science-related professions can be explored: computer science and science-based business; and computer science and science communication and society.
