Science and technology studies (STS) is a growing field of study in the United States and around the world that seeks to understand how science and technology shape human lives and livelihoods and how society and culture, in turn, shape the development of science and technology. From the automobile to the internet, and from cloning to the Earth's climate, modern life is intimately entwined with advances in science and technology. Every social issue, from AIDS and economic growth to arms control and crime, entails important scientific and technological aspects. By focusing scholarly attention on science and technology as human institutions, situated in wider historical, social, and political contexts, STS provides insights into the relationship between science and technology and such basic categories of social thought as race and gender, poverty and development, trust and credibility, participation and democracy, health and pathology, risk and uncertainty, globalization, and environmental protection. STS theories and methods offer new approaches to understanding scientific and technological change and their intersections with other social, political, and economic dynamics. As an academic program, STS offers students an opportunity to learn skills and approaches for understanding the political and cultural implications of new technologies, as well as the role of science and expertise in the making of public policy. STS prepares students to be more active and effective participants in public debates about science and technology. The field also prepares students for the many expanding career opportunities in managing science and technology in a democratic society, including the management of scientific and technological research, science and technology policy, the design and maintenance of museum exhibits and archival collections, science journalism, science advice and expert assessment, and science, technology, and the law.

STS has come to recognise science and technology as neither wholly autonomous juggernauts nor simply neutral tools ready for any ulitisation whatsoever. Instead, science and technology are... perceived as value-laden social processes taking place in specific historical contexts shaped by, and in turn shaping, the human values reflected in cultural, political, and economic institutions. Such a view does not deny the constraints imposed by nature or the physical reality of technological artifacts, but it does insist that our knowledge and understanding of nature, of science, and of technology are socially mediated processes. It is toward just such a holistic and interdisciplinary understanding, coupled with the hope that society will be better able to shape and control its science and technology as a result, that STS aims...

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY STUDIES Follow this link to the list of STS courses to be offered in 2003/04 Science and Technology Studies STS ) is a full degree program and research unit located within the interdisciplinary School of Analytic Studies and Information Technology . STS is dedicated to analyzing science and technology, their development, and their impact on society. What is science? How does it affect society? How does society affect the development of science, the concepts, and metaphors it deploys, and the kinds of knowledge it produces? How do theories change in science? How are scientific controversies opened, sustained, closed? What distinguishes science from non-science? What are the relations between science and technology? In addressing such questions, STS adopts a variety of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches and insights drawn from scholarly work in the history, philosophy, and social studies of science and technology. Interdisciplinary studies of science and technology represent one of the fastest growing academic fields, with major centres in the United States, Europe, and Australia. Science and Technology Studies at Atkinson is unique in Canada. Focusing primarily on science and technology in the 19th and 20th centuries, it offers two degree streams: B.A. (including Honors) in

The Centre was founded in 1991 as Scientometrics Research Group. Initially this Group focused on studies of the science and technology indicators of Latvia and other Baltic countries, especially in the post-socialist period. Simultaneous expansion of the research area from indicator studies to investigation of the broader science and technology system took place. Among the projects dating from this period were " Efficiency of Latvia’s Science " (1991-1996) and the contribution on Latvia to the International Project “

The Program in Science and Technology Studies: Launched in 2002, the University of Michigan-Dearborn's new Program in Science and Technology Studies (STS) is the first in the nation to give special attention to the impact of a single technology and a single industrythe automobileon American culture. Funded in part by the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Program was developed by an interdisciplinary group of UM-D faculty from the College of Arts, Sciences, and Letters and the College of Engineering. The Program's curriculum consists of an introductory course, STS 300, on The Automobile in American Life and Society and three groups of upper-level course offerings on "Science, Technology, and Cultures," "Science, Technology, and Labor," and "Science, Technology, and Environments." An undergraduate minor in STS is currently available to students in all academic units.
What is Science and Technology Studies? STS is a multidisciplinary field in which scholars from the humanities, social sciences, and behavioral sciences examine the social contexts from which science and technology emerge, the intertwined organizations of people and things used to implement scientific and technological systems, the social consequences of these systems, and the cultural reactions to them. Science and technology studies of the automobile, for example, analyzes the social as well as the technical reasons for the emergence of the internal combustion engine, the reorganization of factories and reconceptualization of labor fueled by mass production techniques, the impact of the automobile on the design of cities and the development of suburbs, and the iconic status of the car in American culture.

A sense of community and mission
A growing and important field
Research and teaching in science and technology studies examines the complex political, economic and other forces that together shape science and technology, and so inform our choices over them. The field of STS encompasses a range of complementary disciplinary approaches and concerns, including the history and philosophy of science, technology and medicine; the so-ciology of scientific and technical knowledge and practice; the economics of technical change; gender, science and technology; the management of innovation; and science and technology policy. Edinburgh's postgraduate offerings in Science and Technology Studies reflect these broad approaches and concerns. Indeed, Edinburgh stands out from other UK centres in the field for the breadth of disciplinary ap-proaches it embraces. Alumni of our postgraduate degree programmes have gone on to pursue careers in industry, education, government, the media and the voluntary sector, as well as in academic research and teaching.
