    Horrible Unhelpful Staff

    Horrible support staff, unhelpful unresponsive professors, expect to ask important degree defining questions all the time due to obscure murky regulations and not receive any word after years. Would give this university 0 stars if possible the sheer incompetency was unmatched by any other I attended.

    Masters in Computer Science

    I would certainly recommend the computer science program in Paderborn University. I enjoyed both the theoretical courses as well as the seminars and projects. As expected, the courseworks demanded enough efforts from the students but at the same time it was fun solving/mastering them. I found most professors and students to be inspiring and supportive. The only drawback that I see looking back is the shortage of thesis topics and supervisors compared to the number of students.

    Good for academia

    Elaborate course work, there is some Studienleistung, which are actually mini project or assignments, quite hard to complete. Unless u clear them, u cant sit for the exam. So in UPB if u pass a subject, even with D, its obvious that u have some clear deep understanding of that subject!
