Digital Society Delft University of Technology (TU Delft)

Overview

About the program

The Digital Society is all around us, in anything from the algorithms that determine which messages you see, through to self-acting robots that sweep the seabed and use machine learning to distinguish plastic from seaweed.

Although it may not be apparent to everyone, digital applications are changing the world: they are making it cleaner, more sustainable, more just, safer, more inclusive and healthier. But there are also threats in the areas of privacy, safety, cybersecurity and inequality – issues that research at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) aims to tackle.
