There is a lot of knowledge about human beings and how we interact with each other. But we are lacking knowledge of our interaction with technology - and how humans and technology mutually affect each other. As a Techno-Anthropologist, you will take part in creating this knowledge - thereby ensuring a future with responsible use of technology.  This study programme is for students with a bachelor degree in Techno-Antropology, in engineering or social sciences or a professional bachelor's degree within health science, e.g. nurses, midwives etc.
