About this programme

The science of gaining knowledge and insight from data is so highly developed today that it forms its own field: data science. The study of data science combines computer science, mathematics and various selectable application subjects. Because of the fascination with these methods and their importance for business, technology and research, the position of a data scientist is often considered the "hottest job" of our time. The study programme in data science is a joint course offered by the departments of Computer Science and Mathematics. Through the application areas, all other faculties of TU Braunschweig also participate in the study programme. TU Braunschweig has been offering the study of computer science since 1972, making it one of the first universities in Germany to do so, and mathematics has always been taught at TU Braunschweig. Since 2018, a specialisation in the mathematics of data science has been offered in the Master's in Mathematics programme. The English-taught Master's programme in Data Science is thus – unlike at other locations – a combination of the fundamentals of mathematics, relevant areas of computer science, and a variety of application areas from the entire portfolio of TU Braunschweig. Examples of these application areas include the following: engineering biology/chemistry/pharmacy medicine image and signal processing Further application areas are in preparation. The study programme manifests itself in three core areas: the education in fundamenta
