Institute for Data Science
We process data using computer science methods to generate knowledge and added value.
Data Science supports well-founded, data-driven decision-making and improves processes. Partners from different business and research fields work with us. They benefit from IT technologies we developed in the context of our international space projects.
In addition, we are committed to shaping the digital society of the future in the areas of science communication and the aging society.
