Research and knowledge transfer

The master's program Data Science is characterized by a close integration of teaching and application-oriented research and development. Our aim is to demonstrate the opportunities of artificial intelligence, data analytics and big data technologies to the regional economy. And on the other hand, we want to show students the relevance of course contents through real-life applications.

As part of the AI Transfer Hub Schleswig-Holstein, we offer small and medium-sized enterprises advice on the potential of artificial intelligence and carry out feasibility studies. A modernly equipped AI laboratory is available for computationally intensive tasks.

In addition, practice projects and master's theses are carried out each semester with a variety of  partners in industry, startups and the public sector. Please reach out to us if you are interested in such type of cooperation,
