More focused on data science than data analytics
It's amazing course! we have AI, ML, LLM, DL which makes the course more towards data science than data analytics. There are still some modules related to data analytics. Overall its relevent!
familiar small University
I study in a small university in Hildesheim. It is very familiar and I like the atmosphere.
Uni Hildesheim Review short
Cheap living and tuition. Substandard communication and involvement due to bad and/or limited office hours leading to long delays in response. Classes and Programmes extremely well organized.

Student services
The International Office will bring you in contact with a German student who will contact you before your arrival in Hildesheim.
The student will fetch you at the main station and accompany you to your accommodation. During the next days, he/she will help you with practical stuff e.g. show you the next supermarket, the way to the university and good spots in Hildesheim for leisure time.
Housing services
In Hildesheim you have the possibility to stay in a dormitory or in private flats. You have to apply for a room directly in the residence.
Rooms at KHG student hall are single rooms with a size of 16 - 26 m². Although the rooms are not quite large, they have a few extras that make them pretty attractive compared to a regular flat:
- rooms have a wardrobe and a sink, some rooms are fully furnished and have a sink
- free internet access (all you need for your computer are a regular network card and -cable)
- a private phone line can be installed on demand
Library services
The University Library serves the academic staff and the students of the university, as well as interested citizens who live in the region. Catalogues, reading rooms and other facilities are open to the public, but you need a reader´s card to borrow books and media.
Campus life
Annual third-party funding has increased sevenfold since the foundation was created, and three major construction programs have followed (Main Campus, Marienburg Culture Campus and Bühler Campus), in addition to a number of other foundation projects and ten innovative endowed professorships. As a public foundation, the University of Hildesheim maintains close relationships with civil society, and a strong network of affiliation with educational, scientific and cultural institutions, as well as economic and business organizations.
Sports facilities
The center for university sports organizes the mostly free sports offers for students and employees of the University of Hildesheim Foundation and the universities of applied sciences (HAWK Hildesheim, Holzminden and Göttingen). External persons are not allowed to participate in the sports program. The offer is created anew for each semester and the lecture-free period.The university sports also organizes various tournaments, which are announced on the notice board or on the homepage.
