An English-taught computer science master's (running since 2013), distinct from Stuttgart's German-language Informatik M.Sc. — the two are separate degrees, so reviews and listings for one do not apply to the other. Based at the Vaihingen engineering campus, approximately 10 km from Stuttgart city centre, served directly by S-Bahn.
