Quote prevents evaulation of concat. You need to do

(setq org-agenda-files
	(list (concat  (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/computerstuff.org")
	       (concat (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/heinzerling.org" )
	       (concat (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/THESIS.org" )
	       (concat (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/privat.org" )
	       (concat (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/TODO.org" )
	       (concat (getenv "DATA_HOME") "/org-stuff/JOURNAL.org")))
