Prepare yourself not only to navigate the flood of data, but to master it. The Bachelor in Data Science at TU Ilmenau is your springboard into a world driven by data, where analytical thinking and technical skills are crucial.

From the first semester onwards, students immerse themselves in the world of data science and get to know the complete workflow of a data-based project - from data collection and cleansing to initial analyses, the selection of models, their interpretation and evaluation and the associated ethical issues. In the software internship, students learn hands-on data science techniques for realistic problems and deepen their knowledge through project-based work. No compulsory basic or specialist internships are required.
