Organisation profile

At the Institute of Information Systems (IIS) of the Leuphana University we work on innovative topics in Information Systems and Data Science. The main focus is on digital transformation, e-health, e-commerce, business analytics, sports and e-learning. Methodologically, we focus on the development and use of machine learning and artificial intelligence methods for the modeling and solution of data-driven decision problems. Additional quantitative (e.g. graphs, optimization) and qualitative (e.g. interviews, reference modeling) methods complement this spectrum. Cooperating with other universities, companies, and institutions of the civil society plays an important role in our work.

Main research areas

At the Institute of Information Systems there are currently 6 professors and numerous research assistants. Our main research areas include digital transformation, e-health, e-commerce, business analytics, sports, and e-learning. Details can be found on the websites of the work groups and in the central research database of Leuphana. The Institute of Information Systems organized a number of events and conferences at Leuphana (e.g. ITEE 2013, final round of the German National Computer Science Competition 2014, MKWI 2018).
