Science ,Technology, and Society ID Major

The STS ID Major consists of eight courses: all students take one core course (STS-101 “Introduction to Science, Technology, and Society”) as well as a two-term interdisciplinary senior thesis. If the other half of the interdepartmental major is in Sciences or Engineering, then these students will do a three-course concentration in either (1) history and political science, (2) economics, (3) sociology and anthropology, or (4) philosophy, with all of these classes drawn from the online list of STS courses, as well as three other courses from this list.  If the other half of the interdepartmental major is Humanities or Social Sciences, then these students will take three courses in engineering and science, each of which must count for the major of the respective engineering or science department, as well as three STS courses from the online list.  (The online list of STS courses can be found under the STS Major dropdown above).
