Data Competence College
The first Data Competence College will be hosted from March 26th to 28th at the IT center of RWTH Aachen. Based on the concept of the Wissenschaftskolleg in Berlin or the Institute of Advanced Studies in Princeton, we have invited four individuals with high data competence from different scientific fields (“Data Experts”) as part of the data competence college.
As of now, Prof. Sebastian Houben from Hochschule Bonn-Rhein-Sieg (specialist in AI and autonomous systems), and Dr. Moritz Wolter from University of Bonn (expert in high performance computing and machine learning) have already confirmed their participation.
For three days we aim to create a space where local scientists, and especially early career researchers, can learn from the data experts and each other regarding research data and methods but also data experts can inspire each other. The schedule includes keynote presentations by all data experts, poster presentations by the participants, and 1:1 sessions between data experts and early career researchers, as well as a variety of method- and data-related workshops. We aim at creating an environment in which everyone feels safe to give input, share their knowledge and learn from the other participants and experts.
The exchange with and among experts from different disciplines and/or areas of focus in particular can provide new impetus for data processing or methodical data analysis. In this way, the DKZ.2R Data Competence College forms the focus of mutual enrichment participants and experts alike.
