About us
We enable and shape the digital transformation of science and the humanities!
As a central institution of the University of Hamburg, the Hub of Computing and Data Science (HCDS) supports interdisciplinary research and application of innovative digital methods in close cooperation with its partners from science and research in the Hamburg metropolitan region. It coordinates and supports the implementation of the digital strategy in research at the University of Hamburg. Located in the Science City Bahrenfeld and at various other locations in Hamburg, it fuels the easy adoption, usage and research of digital methods in its Methodology Competence Center and offers to various disciplines and projects a forum for the exchange of information and collaboration at the interface between methodological sciences and applied sciences in the Cross-Disciplinary Labs.
The HCDS is coordinating the network "KIEZ of Computing and Data Science", a platform for interconnectivity in all areas of data science and computation within the metropolitan region of Hamburg.
