The Program

Our Master's Degree in Digital Ethics answers the needs emerging in the information society as new technologies develop. Demand for education in digital ethics is growing, borne out both by the proliferation of public and private documents on the subject and by the appearance of interdisciplinary bodies such as AI ethics committees. Unlike other systems, the Spanish university system has yet to meet that demand with master's programmes specifically in digital ethics.

The programme's main aim is to equip students to address the challenges raised by digital technologies in fields such as information, computing, biotechnology and neurotechnology. It is designed to provide a specialist, multidisciplinary education focused specifically on digital technologies. The programme is grounded in ethics, law and philosophy, in constant dialogue with communication science, computing and biology.
