BASc Digital Futures, Artificial Intelligence and Society
BASc Digital Futures, Artificial Intelligence and Society is built around a simple idea: the people best equipped to shape our digital future are those who can think across boundaries.
Following a shared interdisciplinary foundation year, you will specialise in either Media & Culture or AI & Data, developing deep knowledge in your chosen pathway. Through mixed methods research, computational, qualitative and creative practice, and a major final project or placement, you consolidate your expertise while working at the intersections of data, media and society. You will have the opportunity to put your skills to work through an optional placement year between the second and the final year of your study and gain experience working with non-academic partners.
By combining technical literacy with critical and ethical understanding and insight, you will be prepared for careers across tech, media, policy, consultancy and the third sector, as well as further postgraduate study. Graduates can move confidently between strategic, analytical and creative roles.
