The department's current research focuses on areas such as big data management and data science.

Courses

In addition to the compulsory Bachelor's course in Databases, the members of the department offer various (core elective) courses in the department's Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes as well as in the Data Science study programme run jointly with the MN department and other faculties:

(Core elective) courses

Master Computer Science / Master Data Science

Data Mining

Big Data Technologies

Big Data Analytics

Architecture of database systems

Current database technologies

Applied Data Warehousing

Bachelor's degree

Data Warehouse Technologies

Java Enterprise Database Application Development

Object-oriented and object-relational databases
