Science, Technology and Society
The Science, Technology, and
Society (IS-STS) specialization combines a strong science background with a
firm grounding in environmental, social and science policy issues. Students
pursue a science concentration or a minor in a science field, which is complemented
by studies in areas such as political science, history, humanities, English,
and philosophy. Working closely
with your advisor, you can tailor a curriculum that provides a broad base of
multidisciplinary knowledge and promotes strong analytical and communication
skills. Coursework will prepare
you for additional study in law school, public policy and community development
programs, or even accelerated teacher certification programs. Potential careers include positions in
community and government agencies, in science and technology companies, in the
military, or as law enforcement officers, science and math teachers, and science
lobbyists. Click on the links

Important Note
Consult the admissions/application web
pages of the professional programs for information on required
pre-requisite courses and admissions tests, application procedures, and
application deadlines. Some professional/graduate programs will not
accept AP or CLEP credits, online courses, or correspondence courses for
the core science and math pre-requisite requirements. Many programs
also require that all pre-requisite coursework be completed within a
certain period of time, e.g., within 5 years prior to application.
Policies vary by school and program. Be sure you know the requirements.
