## ##   * Overview
  * Program Requirements
  * Plan of Study
This combined degree offers both a strong data science foundation and an
interdisciplinary understanding of global affairs and international issues.
Students study the collection, manipulation, storage, retrieval, and
computational analysis of data in its various forms, including numeric,
textual, image, and video data from small to large volumes. Utilizing these
skill sets allows students to address topics such as interstate relations
(conflict, cooperation, hierarchies); civil society, transnational advocacy
networks, global social movements; and state-society relations (democracy,
authoritarianism, social justice and inequalities, citizenship). Upon
graduation, students are equipped with the skills and knowledge needed to work
across national cultures in fields that relate to utilizing data to address
complex regional and international issues.
