BA/BS in Data Science

Data is collected everywhere, from social networks to medical research, and skilled people are needed to tidy it, analyse it, find hidden patterns and make it useful. This bachelor's programme trains students for that role. The education covers data preparation, analysis and visualisation, resting on the mathematics, statistics and computer science that a data scientist needs. On that base, students can arrange the remainder of their studies flexibly through a wide range of electives. The course is taught in German and English and leads to the Bachelor of Science. No tuition is charged; students pay only the semester contribution. Questions and answers on the page explain what applicants should bring along. Welcome weeks for first-semester students are held before teaching begins, giving newcomers an introduction to studying at the faculty.
