Research with and about AI and digitalization
How can AI be used for the benefit of people? What tasks can it do for us and how can acceptance be increased? What risks does it pose? How can it be better trained for autonomous driving, for example? Research teams at Ruhr-Universität Bochum are working on these and many other questions.

Researching digitalization
What is digitalization doing to society? What opportunities and risks does it bring? How can we make sensible use of its possibilities? Researchers at Ruhr-Universität Bochum are working on questions like these.
These institutions are researching digitalization:
CASA Cluster of Excellence
CASA is the center for pioneering cybersecurity research at Ruhr-Universität Bochum. CASA strengthens the resilience of the digital society through an innovative and interdisciplinary research program.
Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security
The Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security(HGI) brings together around 200 scientists in interdisciplinary working groups. In one of Europe's largest and most renowned higher education institutions for IT security, students and researchers work on basic research in cryptography, security for the Internet of Things, usability and data protection, among other things. This is how studies, cutting-edge research and transfer into practice come together at the HGI.
Research Center Trust
The interdisciplinaryresearch center Research Center Trustworthy Data Science and Security (RC Trust) of the University Alliance Ruhr bundles top-level research on reliable and responsible artificial intelligence and researches secure and robust IT systems that remain reliable even in the event of new data, disruptions or targeted attacks.
Center for Advanced Internet Studies
The Center for Advanced Internet Studies(CAIS) researches the social, political and economic changes triggered by digitalization in the immediate vicinity of the RUB campus. CAIS shares its findings with other scientific institutions and, through transfer, with society.
Institute for Intellectual Property, Data Protection and Information Technology
Data protection and security are two central topics of digitalization. The Institute for Intellectual Property, Data Protection and Information Technology(IGEDI) deals with the legal aspects.
