Computational Science Hub (CSH)

The CSH is a joint venture of researchers at the University of Hohenheim which aims at intensifying the exchange and cooperation across faculties and institutes to concentrate (combine) domain knowledge and methodological expertise in the fields of artificial intelligence (AI), data science as well as scientific computing.  

In that, the CSH promotes innovative and transdisciplinary research and teaching and actively contributes to the university-wide topic “digital transformation”:

  • In research: Members of the CSH meet regularly in the CSH Seminar to present their current research and to exchange ideas. By combining domain knowledge from various disciplines with methodological expertise, it aims to help identify opportunities for cooperation and synergies for future research activities.
  • In teaching: Extra-curricular courses developed by the CSH contribute to increasing the “Data Literacy” of our students in general and, with regard to AI and data science competencies in particular. In this way, the CSH complements the qualification profiles in a sustainable fashion.

Cooperation across institutes and faculties is furthermore promoted by the planned relocation of parts of the participating departments in the building Steckfeldstr. 2, once the renovation works are finished.
