Examining scientific and technological practice and use

Research

The expertise of the department faculty ranges from the Scientific Revolution of 16th and 17th century Europe to contemporary science and technology both in the U.S. and abroad. Research and teaching examine scientific and technological practice and use, with special concern for the roles played by legal and political institutions, gender, religion, and the social dynamics of scientific communities.

Research Resources

Faculty and students draw on the university’s superb library resources, which also offer an excellent set of electronic connections to resources beyond Cornell. All of this research activity is reflected in the S&TS teaching program, as evidenced in the wide array of courses available to graduate and undergraduate students. The Department’s undergraduate curriculum offers graduate students excellent opportunities for honing their teaching skills, thus developing an increasingly important professional competence

The Science Studies Reading Group (SSRG) meets weekly to provide a forum for faculty and graduate students to discuss their work. Click here to browse the schedule of upcoming SSRG sessions.
