Science, Technology, and Society

Director: Professor A. Burkett (English)

Science, medicine, and technology all play important roles in modern society. Several different populations of students would be interested in studying Science, Technology, and Society (STS):

• Science or engineering majors who want to place their interests in a social context
• Humanities or social sciences majors who want to include science, engineering, and their social consequences in their education
• Students who want to study science and engineering at a meta-level (philosophy of science, sociology of science, history of science, etc.).
