Dual Study Program in Computer Science 2027

Climate change poses great challenges to the world. At the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin we explore materials for a climate-neutral future. 1400 employees from all over the world work together on this goal. Come to us and support us! Dual studies Computer Science 2027 Reference number: IT 2026/8 At the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin, we design the interface between IT and research in the Department of Experimental Control and Data Collection. We develop and maintain software solutions for modern measurement and experiment systems, creating the basis for energy research. The dual study of computer science with start on 01.09.2027 in cooperation with the University of Economics and Law (HWR) Berlin. You acquire sound knowledge of computer science and work with us in the practical phases on tasks of application and system programming that arise directly from the requirements of our research areas – e.g. for expanding a coating system for solar cells. You will be accompanied by experienced developers.

You analyze the requirements of scientists and develop practical software solutions for real research. You work on projects related to device, experiment and system controls, data acquisition, transmission and analysis systems, web development and database applications. You will get to know various programming paradigms and languages and use them specifically, such as C/C++, Python, Java, LabVIEW and Perl. You document your work and contribute to the successful development of our systems in the long term.
