Information Science

How can we automatically analyze and understand large amounts of data? How can we develop new information technology in such a way that human needs are central? Are AI models like ChatGPT really as smart as they appear to be, and how can we improve them?

These days, everything revolves around data, or information. The Information Science program, which is situated at the intersection of computer science, artificial intelligence, data science, and language technology, trains you to automatically process, edit, and analyze these enormous amounts of data in a systematic and responsible way. You will learn to develop and evaluate software. You will consider the needs of people and society. You will become an indispensable data specialist for the future, with both practical and theoretical expertise. You will be trained by an enthusiastic group of international researchers: the language of instruction is English.

The availability of digital data and the rise of AI have drastically changed the world. In the BSc Information Science program, you'll learn practical skills to use data and AI applications effectively and responsibly, so you can stay ahead in the digital society of the future.
