Introduction


 

Shape the Future by Connecting Human Insight with Data Intelligence

The Human Science & Society program is a pioneering English-track interdisciplinary major designed to cultivate future leaders who can solve complex global challenges. By integrating deep humanistic insights with cutting-edge computational tools, we prepare you to lead innovation in an AI-driven world.

 

 

What is Human Science & Society?

 

This major focuses on understanding the complex contexts of human communication, learning, and social interaction. By combining domain expertise in social sciences with information-based analytical technologies (AI, Data Modeling, and Algorithms), students learn to design creative strategies for solving real-world problems.

 

 

Educational Goals

 

• Contextual Problem Solving: Develop the core competency to discover and define problems within social, technical, and cultural environments.

• Digital Integration: Master technical tools like AI and data processing as means to enhance human-centered problem solving.

• Global Leadership: Grow into a "Global Creative Innovation Leader" capable of leading sustainable social innovation.

 

 

Curriculum Structure: Computational Core + Domain Pathways

 

Designed to cultivate future-ready interdisciplinary leaders, the program places computational and data-driven approaches at its core, while empowering students to tailor their academic pathway through domain-specific electives across the humanities and social sciences.

As technological paradigms continue to evolve, the curriculum will be continuously updated to reflect emerging data- and AI-driven methodologies alongside societally significant topics across diverse domains.

 

I. Core Foundations (Required)

 

Building the Computational Backbone

The Core Foundations establish the program’s analytical backbone. Students develop essential competencies in AI methodologies, data analytics, and structured knowledge design—skills that form the basis of interdisciplinary problem solving in a data-driven world. These shared foundations ensure that all students acquire the computational literacy required to navigate complex societal challenges.
