Intersectional Computer Science PhD Programs?

[C.E.]

Hi people, my undergrad degree is not computer science related, but I am currently working in the industry as a software engineer in a reputable tech company. As I worked, I grew strong interests in the field of programming language and studied a lot about it. I think in the future, "intelligent" compilers will replace most programmers' work and create brand a new ecosystem in the tech society. I fancy to develop this thesis in a rigorous academic environment and wish to do a PhD on it.  The only problem is that this thesis is not a strictly scientific one because it would involve sociological and philosophical discussion. I imagine major computer science programs will reject me since most of their content are purely mathematical. So I wonder do there exist intersectional computer science PhD programs that encourage hybrid research directions like mine? Thanks a lot.

This sounds like digital humanities or human computer interaction HCI.  It also sounds like it has a bit of an AI feel too it.  From what I've heard AI is the most popular subfield and thus usually the most competitive to get into to.  And HCI is probably second or close to second.  Being a nonCS undergrad doesn't help.

Either way dissertations almost always have qualitative and quantitative research and research is always scientific.
