1. Understand the focus of computational social science and why social science knowledge is necessary alongside information
science to solve social issues through specific research examples.
2. Experience how generative AI can be utilized in learning and understand the precautions for its use.
3. Understand the necessity of international and interdisciplinary perspectives in achieving SDG goals.
4. Recognize the ethical issues inherent in computational social science research processes.
***This course is offered in a ”fully on-demand” format, allowing you to study anytime and anywhere. Therefore, the main content
differs from traditional lecture-style classes. The primary activity involves completing assignments using generative AI tools
prepared by the instructor. If you wish to enroll, please be sure to check the first session guidance posted on ScombZ.***
Based on our university’s founding principle of ”nurturing engineers who learn from society and contribute to society,” this
course explores how information science contributes to society and integrates with social sciences. Students will understand
how computational social science, at the forefront of integrating humanities and sciences, contributes to SDGs, allowing them
to visualize the connection between information science and social sciences.
The course introduces the latest research papers in computational social science, explaining their content and encouraging
students to consider the social impact of information technology. Students will also experience how generative AI technologies,
which have been attracting attention in recent years, can support their everyday learning.
While the course covers specific data analysis methods and mathematical models, explanations will be based on high school-level
science knowledge, making it accessible even for students who are not confident in data or mathematical analysis.
Note: Some materials will be provided in English to accurately convey the content of the research papers, but assignments
and communication with the instructor will be conducted in Japanese.
- Understand the focus of computational social science.
- Understand how to use generative AI and its precautions.
- Understand international and interdisciplinary perspectives in achieving SDG goals.
- Recognize the ethical issues inherent in computational social science research processes.

Evaluation method and criteria
This course emphasizes the use of generative AI.
The final grade is calculated based on 12 reading assignments using generative AI (total 80 points) + attendance (20 points).
Detailed evaluation criteria will be explained in the first session guidance materials.
Based on the above, a comprehensive evaluation will be conducted, and a score of 60 or above out of 100 points is required
to pass.
