This is false. In Germany there are Universitäten and Hochschulen.
Hochschulen are more practical, at one of these you have programming assignments or projects in nearly every subject.
Universitäten are more about the theory but they still have some programming assignments, maybe one subject every semester.
At some Unis CS is just a part of the Mathematics department so that is also a factor which makes them even more theoretical.
- nforgerit 3y agoThat is the theoretical construct in the German system. However the differences are fading and to me it does not seem to be like German universities, as actors of (self-proclaimed) highest art in their topics, are doing very well. Btw: Though I enjoyed Maths much more than CS, I wouldn't have understood Linear Algebra without watching the MIT Open Courseware thingy by Gilbert Strang. I think that's saying a lot about the German art of teaching (at least at that time).
