Building national capacity in fields of global importance.
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) was established with a vision to enrich communities in Qatar and the world through interdisciplinary educational experiences and innovative research and collaboration opportunities.
As part of an innovative research-driven university, CHSS aims at researching and disseminating knowledge related to the forefront issues in humanities and social sciences. Our overarching theme is social justice that we attempt to integrate into our research activities. As a result, we aim to address social justice and achieve core values through interdisciplinary research.
We are driven by our collective belief and commitment to social justice.
At CHSS, we strive to be agents of change as educators and students and work collaboratively with other social actors and partners to achieve our goal. Our programs are geared towards social impact and developed to be relevant and address local challenges. Our research agenda focuses on areas of importance such as diversity, inclusion and accessibility, and gender equality and empowerment. Our graduates leave with a clear understanding of their mission as engaged professionals and researchers, and above all their responsibility to be active citizens.
I am proud to be part of a college that offers such great programs. The Digital Humanities and Societies program covers trending topics such as algorithmic bias, artificial intelligence and Natural Language Processing. What really excites me about studying Digital Humanities is getting the chance to discuss and debate the social implications of technologies in a world that is occupied by different societies and cultures.
As an international student, joining the College of Humanities and Social Sciences has given me the opportunity to enrich my knowledge both academically and professionally.
Being a part of this community has also helped me to expand my social network, as I get to interact with people from different countries, cultures and backgrounds.
