Which is a better fit for you?
Which suits you better: Data Science & Society or Global Responsibility & Leadership?
Data Science & Society
In Data Science & Society you go beyond coding and data analysis: you learn what data really means. That way, you see the whole picture.
You combine technology with ethics and law, so you don’t just understand AI, you can also think along about what’s right for society.
You work on projects about algorithms, misinformation and privacy & data protection, building skills that are in high demand.
Global Responsibility & Leadership
This programme is perfect for internationally minded students with strong ideals and broad interests. Global Responsibility & Leadership focuses on contributing to solutions for the world’s challenges.
You’ll learn across areas you don’t usually find in one degree: politics, psychology, economics, sustainability, global health, climate, energy transition and more.
Perfect if you’re curious about many things. You’ll also learn to turn your ideals into action.
