PhD in Digital Social Science

Graduates from the programme are trained to be capable of dealing with a wide range of issues that are a result of digitalisation of various areas of society. The cornerstone of the structure of graduates’ competences is their training in computational methods required to study digital social phenomena. Broadly conceived, these methods include data mining and machine learning, but also methods from security studies, media studies, economics, law anthropology that enable the graduates to analyze a wide spectrum of phenomena that contribute to rapid transformation of society driven by digitalisation. Graduates are expected to find employment at public institutions that handle the data dimensions of digitalisation, private companies offering services and products for the digital market, universities and other scholarly institutions that study the digital transition.
