The specialisation Data Science focuses on data related aspects of research, including but not limited to the storage, processing, and analysis of data. The study on this subject comprises the data science aspects like parallel processing, machine learning, and statistics, as well as getting to know an application area, e.g., bioinformatics, computational neuroscience, or digital humanities. In these specialisations, the focus is purely on the data and how to use it in a domain. Domain knowledge that is not directly related to the data analysis is out of scope.

The specialisation 'Digital Humanities' focuses on the application of computer-based approaches and methods to digital resources in the humanities and social sciences. Currently, this area focuses on the subjects of archaeology and linguistics. The 2-Subject-Bachelor 'Computer Science plus Humanity/Social Science' is recommended as foundation for this specialisation area. To fulfil the requirements of admission for the Master it is necessary to complete the "fachwissenschaftliches Profil" and the Bachelor thesis in Computer Science.
