Theoretical-practical classes. Discussion of reports and articles on the chapters of the course. Discussion of case studies of the subjects taught, in the context of public and private administration.
Learning Outcomes
Provide students with knowledge, skills and competences that allow them to recognize and discuss emerging technologies that are part of the digital transformation that is taking place globally, both in the Public Administrations of the countries, and in the business and social sectors. In a context in which the volume of data increases significantly, day by day, in all sectors (public, private and social) and with the progressive universality of the use of emerging technologies, such as artificial intelligence, it is essential that citizens, institutions and political power understand the weaknesses of its assumptions, guidelines, objectives, as well as the necessary and appropriate actions, case by case, in the domains of data management and the generation and dissemination of information in ethical and safe conditions. Students will also be able to discuss the challenges facing electronic governance in the coming decades of the 21st century.
