We used German for everything in my undergrad courses. Germany seems to have its own proud CS culture, haha.
We have "Informatik" which comes in the flavours:
Theoretische Informatik, which is low-level Computer Science, think information theory.
Praktische Informatik, which is high-level Comouter Science, like programming language design and software architecture.
Angewandte Informatik, which is software development, like apps, databases etc.
Technische Informatik, which is computer engineering.
And then, of course, we have a never ending count of cross cutting CS degrees like: Medieninformatik, Bioinformatik, Wirtschaftsinformatik, Medizininformatik, etc.
This all has to be mentally moved into the right English equivalent and then translated.
