Course description:
This course provides graduate students with an in-depth understanding of the technology-policy nexus – an interface which has become a critical requirement for effective policy analysis and implementation. Students joining the course with predominantly policy and social science backgrounds will learn about the relevant domains and discourse supporting technology innovation, as well as the issues, datasets, and trends underpinning this emerging and increasingly relevant area.
Learning outcomes:
On completion of the course, students will gain knowledge of the key concepts underlying data science, data sets, data analytics, modelling and the use and application of these approaches in key policy areas.
The course will run in person between 9 am – 4 pm daily, ending at 12:00 pm on Friday, August 18. Lunch and refreshments will be provided.
