JOIN THE DIGITAL SOCIETY SCHOOL

Welcome to the Digital Society School, where you become a conductor and leader of digital transformation and social change rather than a follower.

Grow your skills and develop your full potential. It is hands-on learning at its best, involving practice-based work with a touch of research. You’ll be part of a vibrant interdisciplinary group during a semester and enjoy unique exposure to a network of experts within the field.

You will work in multidisciplinary teams guided by experts from the industry and the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. The team is a mix of designers, programmers, social/digital media experts, researchers, copywriters and storytellers.

In 20 weeks (from Feb-Jun or Sep-Jan) your team develops a working prototype in collaboration with the partner. The team will be working 5 days a week in Studio HvA or at the partner’s office. Within the traineeship there will be time allocated for documentation or graduation requirements/thesis work. The traineeship is in English and available to all talented and motivated students, recent graduates of higher education, and professionals seeking to advance their career.

I AM INTERESTED!

ABOUT YOU

You are experienced with or curious about user-centered design. Not only are you a thinker, but also a doer and you flourish in multidisciplinary team. Turning concepts into prototypes is your thing, but also reflecting upon results in relation to a societal challenge. You will work closely with different stakeholders and together you will come up with tools, prototypes and solutions for that challenge. You will learn to leverage the tools and methods that are part of the Digital Transformation taking place in society today. Together with the city of Amsterdam and its citizens you will tackle the challenges posed by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

WHAT DO WE OFFER?

We offer a monthly stipend plus enrollment in the Digital Transformation Intensive Program (DTIP) at reduced rates. The DTIP consists of 4 (full time) weeks of workshops and master classes as well as personal coaching to get you ready for the next step in your career. Additionally you will have access to the tools and facilities of the Amsterdam University of Applied Science like a Maker’s Lab and Sports Facilities. On top of that you’ll become part of the DSS community where you will find inspiration and career opportunities.

Over the past couple of years the program has matured into something that enriches the partners that work with us. It has also offered our participants the opportunity to start or level up their career in Amsterdam or elsewhere in the Netherlands. In order to maintain and improve the programme it is necessary that the pricing will be increased over the coming years to better reflect to value it represents.
