Overview

During the Public Administration - Artificial Intelligence and Governance programme from Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, you will focus on governance and public policy issues from various perspectives.

Digitalisation and the rise of AI is redefining traditional job profiles. The IMF calculates that, in developed economies, up to sixty percent of jobs may be affected by AI. This programme equips you with the skills needed to operate in this new algorithmic governance context. On a par with governance know-how, we build your data literacy, familiarity with innovative computational techniques, and critical engagement with data.

In terms of career paths, with this degree, you can work as a public manager, policy-maker but also in management positions in the private sector, as a consultant or a data analyst. The skillset you acquire in this programme is in demand across both public and private sectors.
