Datenwerkstatt Jena 2025: Safe the Date
The Datenwerkstatt Jena 2025 will take place from March 24 to 28 and we are organizing the first Data Literacy Datathon in Jena.
If you would like to work on real challenges at the university, the University and State Library (ThULB) or the city of Jena and improve your own data skills, then this event is just right for you.
The individual challenges offer very different challenges, which, in addition to “classic” data analyses, also include the conception of data collections or the development of creative data visualizations.
Whether you already have a lot of experience in the field of data or are just curious and would like to solve real-world problems, students from all disciplines are welcome, regardless of their previous knowledge.
The most important facts summarized here:
What is a Datathon?
At the Datathon, you will work on one of the set challenges in an interdisciplinary team over 3 days. Between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m., the teams will have access to rooms and mentors who can help with questions and problems. On the last day, the results of the individual teams will be presented and discussed with the challenge givers.
Depending on your interests and previous experience, you can take part in the workshops at the beginning of the week that will give you an introduction to useful methods and tools for working on the challenges.
Who can participate?
Whether you are a beginner or a professional, students of all disciplines and semesters are invited. No special prior knowledge is required.
We look forward to a diverse range of participants who will enrich the projects with their different perspectives and skills. Students can earn the DaLiJe “Project” certificate by participating in the event.
How do I register?
Registration will be opened soon.
