In line with our philosophy of research-led teaching, involvement in innovative contract research projects ensures a highly practice-oriented approach to teaching on the degree programmes. Special focus is placed on taking into account not only technological but also economic and social aspects in both teaching and research.<\/p>\n<h5>Research fields<\/h5>\n<p>Current research and development topics include <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Multimedia and Interface Development<\/strong> and<\/li>\n<li><strong>Big Data and Business Analytics<\/strong>. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Multimedia and Interface Development<\/strong> covers topics pertaining to the World Wide Web, multimedia computer systems, smartphones and smart homes: the increasingly rapid pace at which new devices and applications are being developed raises the question of how human machine interfaces should be designed and programmed to ensure that their use is not only intuitive but also fun, and appeals to as many senses as possible.<\/p>\n<p>The rapidly advancing digitisation of business and communication processes generates unimaginably large and diverse quantities of data. The challenge of <strong>Big Data and Business Analytics<\/strong> is to extract valuable information from the complex data in order to support decision-making by providing timely and analytical
