Visualization is a field of emerging relevance in computer science with many areas of application. Advanced computer graphics are used to convey insight into large, complex data sets. The data sets result from various measurements, e.g. from medical 3D scanners, seismic/sonar measurements, or computer simulations (e.g., computational fluid dynamics), or from complex modelling, such as modelling of dynamic systems by means of differential equations. Visualization deals with the interactive study and analysis of data and the presentation of results. Prominent examples of visualization are volume display of medical 3D images, the visualization of the air flow around cars and aeroplanes, and the visualization of large hierarchical data structures, such as the filing system on a computer.

About this course

Objectives:

After studying this programme, a candidate with a Master¿s degree in Informatics specializing in Visualization will have substantial knowledge and advanced skills in visualization, computer graphics and interactive techniques as well as substantial skills in related programming. Due to the interdisciplinary nature of visualization, the students are also given an introductory overview of specialized areas such as medicine, biology, or the geosciences. In their Master's programme, the students are given a thorough introduction to scientific working principles, e.g., taking state-of-the-art research into account and presenting their own work.
