Today, computer science is an enormously vibrant field, including topics such as programming languages, algorithms and complexity, data structures, intelligent systems, distributed systems, and network technologies. During its fifty years of existence, computer science has become a defining technology of our age. Computers are integral to many parts of our society and, moreover, the field continues to evolve at an astonishing pace. New technologies are introduced continually, and existing ones become obsolete.Our master program in Computer Science offers a number of advanced courses, e.g., with emphasis on information security, information systems, and intelligent systems. The courses focus on aspects close to the research front in computer science. The master program ends with a master thesis, which usually is based on current research and scientific articles. After obtaining your master degree you are well prepared for a work in industry as well as a research career at the university.

Prediction, description and assessment of characteristics of structures and components in machine design are becoming increasingly important to support decision making in product development. Being able to making well-informed decisions at an early stage of the product development process as well as finally finding an optimal design is critical to competitiveness.The purpose of this programme is to prepare for participation in advanced product development or research in mechanical engineering. The goal is that the graduates will master a coordinated approach to analysis support for product development, including virtual and physical modelling, simulation/experimentation, and optimisation, see below. They should also be able to keep up with and contribute to new research findings and communicate scientific data and relationships ? orally and in writing ? using modern animation and visualisation equipment.

Many products today contain software, even in areas and applications where it is not visible at a first glance. Even domains that have historically been hardware domains are now shifting towards software-intensive products. There is thus an increasing need for professional software engineers. A professional software engineer is able to develop software according to a certain specification, with a specific quality, on time, and on budget.This need is recognised by the Master?s Program in Software Engineering at Blekinge Institute of Technology, one of the oldest and well renown master?s educations in software engineering in Sweden. Accordingly, we focus our education on teaching professionalism and realism. Professionalism means that we teach an engineering approach to difficult subjects such as project management, quality management, requirements engineering, and verification and validation, but also in more technically oriented courses such as systems engineering, software architectures, and software product lines. Realism means that we train our students for a reality dealing with large scale market-driven software development, where things are not always done by the book.We put high demands on our students, and expect of them to be able to relate their own experiences to state-of-the-art research and literature, as well as current industry practice. We mix lectures where students are expected to be active with seminars, assignments, industry case studies, and a critical review of each others work. The teaching staff consists of active researchers and industry practitioners, which ensures the goals of professionalism and realism, but also that of relevance.

The aim of this programme is for each Master?s graduate to: Have a thorough understanding of an intellectually strict, widely applicable framework for sustainable development (known in the business community as ?The Natural Step Framework?), Be able to apply the framework, in a range of situations, for an analysis of problems as well as creation of solutions, Be able to select, design and apply a range of complimentary and cohesive tools and concepts as part of a strategic approach to sustainability, Be able to demonstrate an in-depth, sophisticated application of the framework (as part of a group thesis); and To develop enhanced leadership capabilities and the ability to inform and empower through an improved awareness of organisational and personal learning as well as improved presentation, facilitation and coaching skills.

If you seek deeper understanding of management of fashion and textile value chains, this is the programme for you. The programme provides the tools to master management of textile and fashion processes and applications. You will get profound knowledge about management of the processes in the textile value chains, with a special focus on sustainability. The focus on application of current research in management of the textile value chain, marketing, sustainability and entrepreneurship will prepare you for advanced industrial and academic positions. After graduation you have acquired the tools to work in executive or expert positions in marketing, quality, production or logistics departments, start a business of your own or perhaps go for a PhD programme.The master programs in Textile management have their foundation in the value chain processes within the textile- and fashion industry. Several courses are directly related to management of a specific entity of the value chain or management and dynamics of the interaction between the entities. The university participates in several high-level research projects and industry collaboration, providing opportunities to conduct thesis projects and field studies in advanced settings. The programme, which is given in English, attracts both domestic and international students. There are also joint courses with the other master programmes given at the Swedish School of Textiles that will offer opportunities to improve social networks.
