The German University of Digital Science, or German UDS for short, is a fully digital university in Germany based in the media city of Babelsberg in Potsdam. The term “Digital Science” subsumes the new subject areas emerging in traditional subject areas as a result of advancing digitalization (e.g. Digital Humanities, Digital Health) and the new and emerging subject areas created by digital technologies (e.g. Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence). The study programs focus on digital science, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, virtual and augmented reality technologies, and digital transformation. Research at German UDS is organized in research centers.
