After successful completion of the course, students are able to process and analyse data in the selected domain, select appropriate methods based on the requirements, apply methods to real data, and develop solutions for domain-specific tasks.
Project addressing a domain-specific challenge.
Steps for the Interdisciplinary Project in Data Science
1. Select a main supervisor for the project
- Usually not from the Faculty of Informatics (or Mathematics)
- Not necessarily from the TU Wien
- A list of possible names is below, but you are not restricted to this list
2. Discuss the project with the selected supervisor, agree on a 1-page outline and identify the corresponding domain-specific lecture in data science (194.068)
3. Select a co-supervisor for the project
- Usually from the Faculty of Informatics or Mathematics
- Must be from the TU Wien
- E.g., anybody that has lectured any of the Data Science courses (see list below)
4. Discuss the 1-page outline with the co-supervisor
5. Refine the outline until both supervisors agree and upload the final version on TUWEL
6. Do the project
7. Discuss regularly with the supervisors
8. Write the report and prepare the poster
9. Once approved by both supervisors upload the final report and the poster to TUWEL
Note that a project with the company that you are currently working for is generally not a good fit to the requirements for this inter-disciplinary project.

Report on the results
Final Certificate
If the supervisor and co-supervisor do not have the rights to issue a certificate, the supervisor or co-supervisor should send an e-mail to allan.hanbury@tuwien.ac.at (with all involved people in cc) containing the final grade for the project. The certificate will then be issued in the names of the supervisor and co-supervisor (as possible given their affiliation to the TU Wien).
