Student Projects

The Institute for Data Science offers opportunities for students to participate in research through student projects, master projects and PhD positions. Some projects are carried out in international teams, for example in the context of ESA or NASA missions.
For current opportunities and past projects see the astro-helio.ch/students page.

About this Website

The Astroinformatics and Heliophysics Group is an interdisciplinary research group at the FHNW Institute for Data Science: data scientists, computer scientists, engineers, physicists in the domains of solar- and astrophysics and science communicators. We contribute to some of the big international space and astronomy endeavours by the European Space Agency ESA, their American counterpart NASA or through the European research programme Horizon2020. We are also interested in clever small and low-cost projects that allow studying the Universe with limited resources.
