Bachelor in Data and Society in Poland, Wroclaw

The Data and Society programme invites you to explore the rapidly changing world through the lens of data, digital technologies and social analysis. Every day we witness transformations reshaping work, cities, communication, mobility and public life. Where do these shifts come from? How do technological systems, global trends and social forces interact? And what do these processes mean for individuals and societies? The programme offers you space to ask these questions — and the tools to start answering them.

At the heart of the programme is a strong focus on the interplay between data and society. You will learn how data is produced, interpreted and used across different areas of life, and how digitalisation is redefining what it means to work, move, communicate and participate in public spaces. You will also gain solid sociological foundations, enabling you to understand how people form groups, how institutions evolve, how inequalities emerge and how broader social structures shape everyday experiences.

Studying in the Data and Society programme means joining an intellectually rich and culturally diverse academic environment. You will work with lecturers and researchers whose expertise spans labour studies, urban sociology, migration, digital cultures, Big Data analytics, research methodology and critical theories of technology. The curriculum integrates classical sociological knowledge with contemporary analytical competencies, from coding basics and statistical modelling to qualitative research and data visualisation.

To deepen your understanding of how data can illuminate social reality, the programme includes practical, experience-based learning. You will participate in research workshops, design your own studies, analyse real datasets and learn how to communicate insights to different audiences — policymakers, NGOs, social movements, institutions or private-sector partners. This hands-on approach helps you understand not only how to gather and process information, but also how to use it responsibly and ethically in real-world contexts.

Upon graduation, you will have developed a broad, versatile set of competencies linking social understanding with analytical reasoning. You will be prepared to work in areas where data-driven approaches meet social expertise — including policy analysis, data and research consultancy, urban development, migration and integration services, labour market studies, diversity management or digital innovation.

You will also acquire the practical research skills needed to conduct your own projects on social change, work, mobility and digital transformation. The programme equips you with transferable skills in critical thinking, data interpretation, communication, teamwork, problem-solving and ethical reflection, preparing you for careers in public administration, non-governmental organisations, international bodies, private companies or for further study in social sciences at the Master’s level.
