Studies of Science and Technology Minor

Studies of science and technology (SST) deals with a rapidly expanding field that seeks to understand the conceptual foundations, historical development, and social dimensions and context of science and technology. SST faculty are drawn from a number of research and teaching units dedicated in whole or in part to the history, philosophy, and social studies of science and technology.

The SST graduate minor is for students from any major who want to gain a deeper understanding of the nature and development of science and technology. It can be particularly valuable for students who are planning teaching careers in science or engineering, or those majoring in philosophy or history of science and technology.
