<b class="">Prospective Student Visit Day</b><br class="">
<br class="">

<div class=""><font face="Calibri" class=""> <br class="">
The doctoral program in HASTS trains scholars to study science and technology as activities situated in social and cultural contexts. Students do their research in a wide variety of areas including, but not limited to, history of medicine, anthropology of sustainability,
scientific visualization, environmental history, and anthropology of life sciences. Some recent dissertations have focused on the history of U.S. food labeling policies, social study of outer space, artifacts in technology, and the training and identity of
pilots in Japan and the US.<br class="">
<br class="">
The visit day gives prospective students a chance to get a better understanding of what our program offers in terms of research and resources, and to help them decide if our program may be a good fit for them. The registration form (due Oct. 17) and outline
of the day's activities are posted at <a href="http://web.mit.edu/hasts/admissions/visit.html" class="">http://web.mit.edu/hasts/admissions/visit.html</a> . <br class="">
<br class="">
If you think you might apply this year, or even a few years from now, you are welcome to attend our visit day on the 24th!<br class="">
<br class="">
Please let me know if you have any questions.<br class="">
