In research we want to initiate new interdisciplinary projects and establish corresponding professorships. Mathematics and computer science are to develop as interdisciplinary research for earth sciences, with artificial intelligence, efficient algorithms, and visual analysis playing a role.
A combination of new analytical, experimental and simulative approaches should improve our understanding. New measurement techniques and new methods will also be used to model and reconstruct the paleoclimate so that the geological archive can be better interpreted.
Also a cooperation of energy industry and meteorology (see also ewi) shall be extended with seminar series, joint research work.
For teaching, among other things, the new Master's program Computational Sciences will be promoted, special seminars and workshops will be offered to promote cooperation with computer science and mathematics and. Interdisciplinary doctoral theses can also be supervised. Even for the bachelor's degree program, entry-level computer science will be a teaching component.
In addition, we will collaborate with graduate schools (GSGS) to add a strong computational education component to their offerings.
In the outreach, we will bring KPA topics to a broad public and also seek cooperation with schools.
