What Is Science? An Introduction to the Social Studies of Science and Technology

Course information provided by the 2015-2016 Catalog.

It also serves as an introduction to majors in Biology and Society or in Science and Technology Studies. The course mixes lectures, discussions, writing, and other activities.

A series of take-home written assignments and quizzes throughout the semester comprise the majority of the grade.
