Social Sciences for a Digital Society (research)

As a social scientist you need the knowledge and skills to collect and analyse data in a digital society. Polarisation, cybersecurity, international migration, artificial intelligence and healthy ageing, for instance, are global challenges that do not keep to disciplinary and methodological boundaries. Advances in digital technologies, such as algorithms, platforms, apps, and online social networks, create societal challenges that are highly complex and interconnected, and affect society at all levels: individuals, communities, organisations, and nations. With experience and expertise in mixed methods and interdisciplinary research, you will be able to address the global complexities of digital society.
