Digital Society

We are living in a world where digital technology shapes every aspect of our lives: from social media algorithms influencing beliefs and choices to AI radically transforming industries and jobs. In such a world, the ability to critically understand and responsibly engage with digitalisation is not just key, it will get you ahead of the curve.

That’s exactly what you will learn in the Bachelor Digital Society (BA DS) at Maastricht University. 

Our programme provides you with a unique set of knowledge, skills, and mindsets to ensure that you understand digital technologies (such as AI and VR) from inside out, that you can create (with) them responsibly and ethically, and that you can build ‘bridges’ between different stakeholders (from engineers to designers to policy makers). In short, the BA DS is all about thinking, doing, and caring so as to create a better digital future for people and planet.
