Foundations in Data Science

["Data scientists are characterised not only by their sound theoretical and practical knowledge, but also by their ability to think logically and abstractly, proceed analytically, communicate precisely, show perseverance in solving complex problems, and work effectively in a team. These skills are at the heart of the Foundations in Data Science degree programme, which also stands out due to its particularly high proportion of mathematics. It is precisely these skills, combined with in-depth mathematical training and state-of-the-art data analysis methods, that open up excellent career prospects for graduates. Another core feature of the degree programme is the close link between mathematics and computer science. This combination enables students to master data-based challenges in practice and to analytically solve complex problems from various fields of application. In the age of digitalisation, in which data increasingly forms the basis for decisions and innovations, interdisciplinary collaboration between mathematics, computer science, and applied sciences is becoming increasingly important.The degree programme therefore offers numerous options in technical, natural, and social science minor subjects to promote these links."]
