Introduction

The Science, Technology and Society program is designed to provide the student with an integrated understanding of the ways in which science and technology interact with the culture of any society, both as part of that culture and also as a force for change. This program will be useful for students seeking careers in a variety of fields, including communications, policy analysis, and strategic planning, and provides a solid foundation for further professional or graduate degrees.

Science, Technology and Society also provides an excellent opportunity for construction of a defined interdisciplinary component that may be of special interest to students in other faculties such as science, engineering, and business. The Undergraduate Program Co-ordinator for the Department of Communication and Culture is available to discuss specific student interests. Students may request to have Communication and Culture 507 (Collaborative Learning and Peer Mentoring) counted as a STAS option if they are mentoring in a course required by that program (including Communication and Culture 301, 303, 501 or 503). Such requests should be addressed to the Undergraduate Program Co-ordinator.
