Academic, scientific or professional interest: The Master’s in Digital Society aims to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of emerging digital technologies and their transformative impact on contemporary society. The programme covers key sociological areas, including work, education, communication, culture and the public sphere. Students will receive training in new technological methodologies and techniques, while addressing inherent challenges and rights, such as data privacy. This training will equip students with the skills to adapt their analysis to a constantly changing reality and conduct relevant research with great skill and precision. In addition, they will develop the ability to conduct research with a specialised approach to data analysis, thanks to the strong background in data analysis techniques provided by the Master’s Degree. This foundation includes the mastery of Artificial Intelligence-driven tools for big data and network analysis, as well as netnography and data visualisation. The aim is to equip students with the skills to effectively use and interpret data to understand and predict trends in the digital society. These skills can be applied in various contexts of academic and applied research, contributing to decision-making in both public and private sectors. The Master’s in Digital Society provides students with the necessary tools to understand, analyse and evaluate the new social realities marked by digitalisation. It concentrates on the social structure, economy, culture and politics of the digital age, as well as the novel processes of constructing subjectivities and identities. The Master’s places emphasis training in digital audit skills and advanced qualitative and quantitative research techniques. The aim is to enhance academic training, enabling postgraduate students to conduct research and work in both private and public institutions, as well as in consultancy and advisory services.
