Studium Generale | Lecture -Prof. Jan Broersen, Professor of Logical Methods in AI, department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Utrecht University- Broersen, who himself has a background in mathematics, logic and computer science, sees that a humanities perspective on AI is becoming increasingly important. ‘AI has long been the domain of theorists who thought about fundamental techniques and theories.

This series of lectures will explore the significance of human rights in a globalising world. The lectures will demonstrate how human rights are increasingly becoming an instrument with which to challenge the negative side effects of globalisation.

This lecture is part of an initiative called The Moscow Time (TMT) lecture series. This series is organised all over Europe to give the floor to a selection of Russia’s best-know journalists who had to leave their country to avoid prison sentences since Putin’s troops invaded Ukraine and Russia passed a “fake news law”.

During the programme introduction days you will receive valuable information about studying at the Department of Advanced Computing Sciences, life in Maastricht and you will get to know your fellow students.

"Going Big, Going Small, Strategies for Researching Audit Quality"

The Globalization & Law Network is composed by a group of researchers of Maastricht University, coming from different backgrounds, who study the role that law plays in a globalizing society from a holistic perspective.

The broad aim of this conference is to take stock of the state of affairs of EU democracy in times of crisis. Concretely this implies that we will explore two ‘main channels’ of EU democracy: parliamentary democracy (with both national parliaments and the EP being in the spotlight) and civil society/citizen involvement. This event is part of the RELAY project. 

The RELAY project aims at spreading and discussing EU affairs to a diverse array of stakeholders. In particular, it seeks to shed light on how the European Commission's political guidelines relate to and resonate with different communities including academics, think tanks, policy-makers, civil society, etc.. To do this, we are organising a series of thematic workshops to collect stakeholder input.
