IT:U Interdisciplinary Scientific Model

The core objective of our scientific model is to foster and facilitate disciplinary convergence while maintaining the highest standards of scientific excellence. By bringing Interdisciplinary Computing professors and scientists together to research specific interdisciplinary key challenges collaboratively, IT:U will create a melting pot of different disciplines – with computer science as the lingua franca between the different perspectives. 

A new research spirit across disciplines

Our approach is to recruit young, high-potential professors and scientists working at the intersection of computer science and another discipline X—individuals who are open to experimenting with methods from other fields and committed to learning the “language” of others to overcome the “symmetry of ignorance” between disciplines.

Driven by curiosity, grounded in science

By doing so we will open new opportunities for research and the emergence of new research approaches, new topics, and even new communities. To ensure the highest scientific quality, we base our research on the DORA principles and embrace the COARA initiative.
