In Styria, a study program combining computer science with psychology, sociology, law and economics is offered for the first time in Austria.

The English-language master's program Computational Social Systems will start in autumn as a new study program at TU Graz and the University of Graz. It aims to delve deeper into the effects, challenges, and opportunities of the digitized society. Students focusing on business administration, sociology, psychology, or law will receive academic training in computer science topics such as data structures, algorithms, statistics, machine learning, and data science in the new course of study. On the other hand, computer scientists learn to understand, classify, and predict digital technologies' behaviour.
