My minor is *Methods-Data-Society*, more or less a fancy name for statistical data analysis fused with political science and sociology. BA-wise my background is in international relations, which I studied at the University of British Columbia with a focus on contemporary North American history, especially refugee immigration patterns and indigenous issues. After some great, unfortunately unpaid jobs in international cooperation it's my goal to end up in that field eventually. Becoming more proficient in new digital tools is therefore crucial to actually getting paid for work that isn't taking food and drink orders at *some point* in the near future.
This module connects my love for history and the ~~excruciating but~~ exciting build-up of new digital knowledge that is my minor, which is great. Before enrolling at UZH I was a complete beginner in regards to coding, digital collaboration tools etc. but I think I'm slowly getting the hang of it. To add to the language comments made by all of you, I'm very glad that this semester I am taking most of my courses in English, as my academic German is close to non-existant after 12 years of English-language life and education! I'm looking forward to this course, collaborating with all of you and learning new things!
