1. DSC/e Data Science Center Eindhoven Turning data into real value 29-10-2013

2. Data Science Center Eindhoven New initiative of Department of Math & CS of TU/e, in cooperation with EIRICT. Goal is to unite available expertise at TU/e (computer science, mathematics, electrical engineering, industrial engineering, innovation sciences, and industrial design) to attack real-life data science problems beyond individual/group expertise. Public start on December 2, 2013 with Launch Symposium. PAGE 1

3. DSC/e: Data Science Center Eindhoven DSC/e strives to be an internationally leading expertise center when it comes to data science research and education. Research focuses on developing new insights (models, theories, tools) to be able to add and extract value from real sets of heterogeneous data. Education focuses on the skills and scientific knowledge most relevant for tomorrow's data scientist. DSC/e: −should further strengthen data science research, −should make data science an integral part of TU/e educational programs, −should improve visibility of data science @ TU/e (inside and outside), and −trigger new collaborations with industry PAGE 2
