专业概况

在这里学什么？

Science, Technology & Society (STSC) examines the social contexts in which science and technology occur, the organizations of people and things that make up science and technology systems, and the social and cultural consequences of scientific and technological change over time. In a wide array of courses, STSC majors explore the relationship between scientific knowledge, technological innovations, technological systems, and society past and present.

STSC is a liberal arts major with an interdisciplinary methodology. It balances core courses and department electives with a sub-major focused on a more specialized interest within science and technology studies.

This program equips students with sophisticated critical faculties, multidisciplinary skills and wide knowledge that enables our graduates to go into business, law, government, journalism, research, and education. STSC provides a foundation for citizenship in a globalizing, diversifying world with rapid technological and scientific change. STSC majors are able to:

• Read scientific, technological and historical texts critically, assessing their social, cultural, and political origins and ramifications
• Identify the social determinants of science and technology in historical and contemporary contexts;
• Analyze the interplay of social and historical factors that have resulted in particular scientific and technological outcomes;
• Pursue research projects using published sources, technical and experimental data, and archival materials
• Analyze data using both quantitative and qualitative methods
• Build strong arguments (an argument is the use of reasoning to transform information into evidence for a conclusion).

Sub-majors

• Biotechnology and Biomedicine
• Energy and Environment
• Global Science and Technology
• Information and Organizations
• Science/Nature/Culture
