Social Media Analytics Projects — From Posts to Insights
Social media analytics turns posts, networks and engagement signals into measurable insights — sentiment trends, topics, influencers and anomalies. Final-year projects that implement clear pipelines with evaluation metrics produce strong, portfolio-ready results.
Below are 80+ topics across sentiment, topic modeling, network analysis, bot detection, engagement prediction and applications, with tools (Python, NetworkX, Hugging Face, scikit-learn) and public datasets (Kaggle, labelled sentiment corpora, sample social graphs).
