The course focuses on information management and information technology issues. It conveys the essential technical and organizational basics for the development, storage, communication, presentation, search and analysis of information and knowledge in all its forms.
This includes in particular the following topics: database and information systems, information modeling, information analysis, content management systems, social aspects of information science, digital libraries, basics of the information economy and electronic media.
The course differs from a computer science course in its explicit focus on existing organizational, social and administrative structures (publishers, libraries, authorities, companies, etc.), the inclusion of topics related to digital media and the emphasis on socio-political issues.
Due to the emphasis on application, the technical and theoretical basics of computer science are less of a focus than in a classic computer science course. At the same time, at least five mathematics or computer science modules, which are attended together with computer science students, also convey in-depth knowledge of core computer science topics such as software development, algorithms and relational databases.
