The Master in Techno-Anthropology at Aalborg trains students to study and improve the ways people use and live with technology, drawing on digital ethnography, user involvement and responsible innovation. It is a two-year, 120 ECTS programme taught entirely in English, with a September start, and it can be followed on the Aalborg campus. Teaching follows the Aalborg problem-based learning model, so about half of the first year is spent on group projects built around real cases from companies and organisations. The programme suits applicants with backgrounds in techno-anthropology, engineering, social sciences or health professions, and a free preparatory e-course helps newcomers decide.
