Abstract: The paper presents the master study program Social Sciences and Computing, run at the University of Belgrade, Serbia, from the managerial perspective. The aim is to share experiences with program and course delivery over the years. The experiences have been collected through students' evaluation of different courses and the program as a whole, as well as through descriptions of different situations in which the program organizers have found themselves so far. The major challenges identified in running and managing this study program pertain to the program sustainability (given the highly interdisciplinary nature of the program itself), the financial issues, the dynamics of modifying the course contents and the employment perspective of graduates. A useful set of lessons learned over the lifetime of the study program so far is discussed and it largely overcomes the specific program, being more general and useful in other similar situations.
