The Osnabrück University offers every Semester a wide variety of courses in the field of Data Science. The specific orientation and focus of the course is in the hands of the responsible lecturer and of course also depends on the degree programme for which it is offered.
For example, the courses offered by Cognitive Science, Computer Science, Econometrics, Psychology, Social Research and working groups in the field of Data Science are generally more application-oriented, while the courses offered at the Institute of Mathematics tend to have a more theoretical focus.

Beschreibung
In the EBiMAS study project, you will collaborate as a team on developing and training a multi-agent system with a 3D simulation framework that we’ve developed based on Google DeepMind’s MuJoCo physics engine. In the scenario you will work on, simple artificial ant agents must solve a puzzle-foraging task, potentially learning to communicate with each other in the process. The agents are trained with advanced Deep Reinforcement Learning algorithms to investigate emergent properties and dynamics between the agents, such as language, cooperation, and strategies.
Prerequisites for this course include proficiency in programming (Python) and either basic experience with simulation tools like Blender, MuJoCo, Nvidia Isaac, or foundational knowledge of Machine Learning (ML) / Reinforcement Learning (RL) are highly recommended.
Meetings take place in person, in Room 404, on the 4th floor of the IKW building. Full-team milestone meetings with the supervisors are held bi-weekly on Wednesdays. Tutor meetings are held every other week. Specific times may be adjusted based on group availability. Students are expected to self-organize as a team 2-3 times per week, with meeting times for group work agreed upon among students and subgroups.
Note: This course is open to students starting their first part of a two-semester study project in WS24 and those continuing from the previous semester. There is also a separate one-semester interdisciplinary seminar that accompanies the study project.
