Results for STS191

This seminar introduces key analytical approaches and methodologies in the interdisciplinary field of STS, as well as basic tools for designing and conducting original research in STS and related social sciences. Students survey a series of influential studies that examined the intersection of science, technology and society; identify productive questions of their own interest; and explore how to pursue them through strong research design. By completing smaller writing assignments throughout the quarter, you will produce a fully developed research proposal as final assignment. This final proposal can serve as an honors prospectus for students who seek to participate in the STS honors program. First week attendance is mandatory.
