    About Master in AI in Society

    Tuition is 4000 EUR per semester international. Applications close 31 May.

    AI in Society is an interdisciplinary master's programme focused on the social, legal, ethical, and policy dimensions of artificial intelligence. Core themes include mitigating bias in AI systems, improving explainability and interpretability for different users, ensuring data privacy and security, promoting equitable access to AI technologies, and contributing to regulatory and governance frameworks. It responds to the need for interdisciplinary oversight of AI, supported by social scientists who understand the workings, limitations, and potential impact of these systems. Running over 4 semesters from the winter semester at TUM in Munich, students engage with the legal, ethical, and policy aspects of artificial intelligence. The programme addresses current developments such as generative AI for text, speech, images, and video, examining these from an interdisciplinary oversight perspective. Study abroad during the programme is possible through TUM's international exchange channels. Graduates are prepared to assess AI risks, contribute to responsible AI applications, and operate across sectors where AI governance and oversight are increasingly relevant. This programme is based at the Technical University of Munich in Munich.
