For the past 10 years Data School has been at the forefront of researching the impact of AI in society. Working across disciplines and in close collaboration with external partners we conduct research around two main research pillars: Responsible Data Practices & AI and Media Policy and Public Debates. We are committed to producing impactful research that informs policy and practice in public sector and media industries.

As one of the dedicated focus areas of Utrecht University’s Impact Plans, Data School will further advance its transdisciplinary research agenda with the following goals:

• Involving more academic staff in projects with external partners to ensure quality assurance and scientifically translate results into publications.
• Expanding and strengthening relationships with the media industry, such as news media and public broadcasters, as well as creative agencies.
• Improving the visibility of activities and impact both within and outside the University.
