Introduction

Established in 1989, STS Studies is an interdisciplinary minor under the College of Arts and Sciences which endeavors to create an awareness of the historical, social, philosophical and ethical dimensions of our scientific and technological enterprises. The program draws on faculty in disciplines from across the University of New Mexico campus to engage in fruitful dialogue with interested students concerning the crucial issues that face humanity and its planetary environment. This goal is achieved within the framework of a structured program. The program is administered by the STS Coordinator in collaboration with an advisory board made up of faculty from numerous disciplines that offer courses directly applicable to the STS Minor.
