[HASTS-jobs] STS Lecturer @ RIT

[Karen L Gardner]

Passing on from one of our alumni who’s now at RIT...

The Science, Technology, and Society (STS) department at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) is currently looking for someone to teach STSO140 in Spring 2025. “Science, Technology, and Values” explores the concepts and effects of science and technology on society, and analyzes the relationship between science and technology, asking questions such as: How has each come to play a major role today, and how have science and technology affected and been affected by human values, despite longstanding assumptions that science and technology are value-free? Environmental aspects of science and technology will also be examined from interdisciplinary perspectives. Key themes include the practical and theoretical relationships between science, technology, and power. This course fulfills the General Education ethical and social perspectives.

Anyone interested should contact the department chair, Christine Keiner (cmkgsh at rit.edu<mailto:cmkgsh at rit.edu>). Example syllabi from previous iterations of the course are available for reference.
