We bring together the university鈥檚 world-class, interdisciplinary, socio-technical expertise in web science, data science and artificial intelligence to leverage the unique role of online technologies in tackling global challenges.
We work to create collaborations within the university and with industry, Governments and third sector organisations, that bring interdisciplinary socio-technical insights and impacts to the world鈥檚 most pressing problems. We have a key focus on interdisciplinary AI and are working with global partners in data, platform governance, social trust, democratic innovation and technological sustainability to create new knowledge that leads to new solutions. Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) is core to our research as well as continuing our position as global leaders in Web Science.
We established the research area of web science to study this ecosystem that we have created, and to understand how machines and people are working together collectively.
Web science continues to expand, and now includes the role of data in society and the development of human-centred AIs.
Work on trust, bias and effective governance within AI and web science is central to what we鈥檙e doing.
