KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) in Yuseong-gu, South Korea offers a bachelor's degree through its School of Digital Humanities and Computational Social Sciences, taught in English over four years with a September intake. This field applies computational methods, such as data analysis, text mining, and modeling, to questions traditionally studied in the humanities and social sciences, including history, literature, sociology, and political science. Students typically combine coursework in programming and data analysis with humanities and social science theory, learning to apply quantitative tools to large text collections, social data, or cultural archives. The curriculum often includes statistics, basic computer science, and research methods alongside subject-specific humanities or social science courses, preparing students to work at the intersection of these fields. Because the discipline is relatively new, it draws students interested in using data-driven approaches to study social behavior, cultural trends, historical patterns, or public policy questions. Graduates pursue careers in data analysis, digital media, policy research, technology companies working with social or textual data, and further graduate study in computational social science or digital humanities. Being housed at KAIST, a technically focused research university, gives students in this program access to strong computing infrastructure and faculty expertise in both data methods and social science theory. South Korea's active technology and data sectors provide relevant context for graduates seeking roles that combine analytical and humanities or social science training. English-medium instruction makes this four-year interdisciplinary program accessible to international students at a leading Korean institution.
