Schiller's Bachelor of Science in Computer Science prepares professionals to design, build, and deploy software in international environments from the undergraduate level. The curriculum balances strong theoretical foundations — algorithms, data structures, systems architecture — with hands-on projects in modern languages, databases, cybersecurity, and web development, aligned with what tech employers demand across Europe and the United States.

Choosing this degree at Schiller means studying abroad in English with access to four campuses in Madrid, Paris, Heidelberg, and Tampa. Inter-campus mobility lets you combine European experience with Florida's growing technology market, enriching your profile with cultural adaptability and exposure to different innovation ecosystems.

The program is STEM-designated at the Tampa campus, enabling up to 36 months of extended OPT in the United States for eligible international students — one of the most valued advantages for those pursuing tech careers in the U.S. after studying abroad. Beyond Tampa, the U.S.-accredited degree opens doors in European markets with strong demand for bilingual software development talent.

With 2026 tuition of €15,420 per year at European campuses and $17,610 in Tampa, intakes in February, June, and September, and scholarships up to 50% in Heidelberg, Schiller offers an accessible pathway to an English-taught computer science degree without enrolling in a high-cost traditional American university.

Student experience

Living in Madrid

Madrid hosts Complutense, Carlos III, IE-linked routes and many private colleges along Metro lines. Rent in central districts is high; students often share piso rooms in Lavapiés, Moncloa corridors or suburbs linked by Cercanías.

Non-EU students usually need admission, proof of funds, health insurance and a study stay authorization before travel. Spanish and English programs coexist — confirm language of instruction and homologación of prior degrees.
