This semester, the KMD lab is offering topics for teamprojects.

Goal of the teamprojects is to enable students in solving complex real tasks in teamwork. In doing so, they use and occasionally extend methods they already learned in their studies thus far. They are exposed to the data science challenges of business understanding, of data preparation and of communicating the results to an application expert.

The application deadline is Oct. 28, 12:00.
