About the programme

The international cross-border joint master level degree program in Artificial Intelligence and Data Science provided in cooperation between the University of South Bohemia (USB) and the Deggendorf Institute of Technology (DIT). The study program is designed for students who want to gain advanced knowledge in a specialized field of computer science, focusing primarily on artificial intelligence, neural networks, data analysis, processing and data management. Students will gain both a deeper theoretical foundations (mathematical principles of artificial intelligence and data analysis) and practical (lab work and internship) skills necessary for practice.
The programme is closely linked to cooperation with the commercial sphere, especially with partners in the region (BOSCH, Engel, BMW and others), where students also have the opportunity to perform a compulsory internship and/or to work on diploma theses. On top of that both universities are equiped with the state of the art AI laboratories to support the study programme.

Programme structure

The base foundation the joint study program lies in the requirement to spend (in presence) at least ONE semester at the partner university. We recommend to do so within the first two semesters with the flexibility choosing to start summer semester @THD or winter semester @USB. The last two semester are divided between obligatory internship and master thesis. We recommend to choose master thesis supervisor as soon as possible and based on the supervisor's home institution to spend the remaining two semesters in that particular country.

Courses included in the study program are dividi into the four main building blocks and module groups:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Data Science
- Internship
- Master Thesis
