Project description
The Kenyan-German Centre for Data Analytics is a joint initiative of Flensburg University of Applied Sciences and Jomo Kenyatta University of Science and Technology supported by the Namibia University of Science and Technology. Scope of the Kenyan-German Centre for Data Science is to do joint research on Business Analytics and Data Science.
The starting point is a Master programme with technology transfer projects with industry as well as applied research studies. The Master in Business Computing will integrate common teaching modules with exchange of lecturers between Flensburg and Kenya as well as between Kenya and Namibia. Practical insights will be gained by workshops and excursions involving regional companies. Partnerships with industry will serve to the long-term improvement of the applied education and help to improve the IT-capability of the country.
It will integrate common teaching modules, exchange of lecturers, exchange of students, an Autumn School in Flensburg, a Spring School in Africa (revolving in Kenya and Namibia) and workshops involving regional companies. A further service of the Centre will be training courses for life-long-learning.
