1 Essentially nobody is interested in the available (computational science) named certificates and Masters degrees
2 Unfortunately students outside computer science are mainly interested in a masters in computer science as this is known to be a "Ticket to a Green Card".

4 Computational Science is an allowed exam area and students chose one of the two tracks
