About this programme
The Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) track of the MSc Information Studies explores how people, organisations, and societies interact with data-driven technologies - and how to design them to be effective, ethical, and inclusive. Uniquely linked to the Data Science track, HCI focuses on the human and organisational dimensions of AI and data. You will study critical theory, multimodal interaction, and human-AI interaction, while developing hands-on skills in prototyping, user testing, and research. Taught by leading UvA researchers and set in Amsterdam’s vibrant tech hub, this programme prepares you to drive responsible digital transformation in academia, industry, and beyond.
