Housed in the nation-leading School of Information & Library Science, UNC’s BS in Information Science immerses students in the sociotechnical lifecycle of data—from acquisition and curation to analytics and responsible AI deployment. Majors learn Python, SQL, UX research, and cloud architecture while examining the ethical, legal, and cultural impacts of information technologies. Studio courses partner Tar Heels with public-interest tech labs and digital-humanities scholars, building portfolios that range from blockchain land registries to inclusive mobile apps for the visually impaired. Graduates step into roles as data engineers, product managers, or civic-tech innovators with a deep commitment to equity and accessibility.
