The University of Applied Sciences Chur (HTW) is set to experience significant growth in the field of computer sciences after the government of the Canton of Graubünden has commissioned it to establish a centre for data analysis, visualization and simulation. In return, HTW Chur will receive a special professorship for computer sciences.
