In the Data and Computer Sciences master's degree, students deepen the concepts, models, and techniques of Computer Science learned in their bachelor's degree. In addition to the expansion of specialist knowledge, they acquire additional scientific and practical skills as part of their studies. The program is characterized by various options that allow for a deepening or specialization, for example, in the direction of machine learning, data analysis, visualization, algorithms, or building complex (software) systems. The notion Data Science in particular reflects that this program has a strong focus on Data Science concepts and techniques as applied to diverse application domains, focusing on methods and processes for the analysis, modelling, and simulation in the context of complex systems and large-scale data.
