We have started a brand new Advanced LLM program in Technology Governance!

This is not your usual law and technology program! The core of the program is the emerging European technology regulation framework from the AI act to the Digital Services Act.

But we also know that law may not be the easiest, most powerful, or even the most effective instrument to regulate how platforms, AI or social media impact our lives and societies. Therefore the program goes beyond the law, and teaches students how the legal instruments work together with non-legal forces that govern technology: markets, technology design, institutions, politics. So students can make an impact on society, economy, and culture.
What makes this program unique?
• It teaches the latest technology regulation frameworks within the EU and around the globe.
• It follows a multidisciplinary, law+ approach, and teaches law in the context of economic, political, social , cultural powers.
• It deals with info-communication technologies, digital ecosystems, platforms, and infrastructures.
• It is open for students from all disciplines: students with legal Master's degrees study alongside with students with economics, computer science, social science degrees with relevant work experience.
• It translates the latest, cutting edge research of the world-renowned research Institutes of UvA, like the Institute for Information Law (IViR) and the Amsterdam Center for International Law (ACIL) into an advanced educational program.
• It is small-scale, selective, where the best students can study in a personalized, intimate setting.
