Science, Technology and Society - New Jersey Institute of Technology

Science, Technology and Society from New Jersey Institute of Technology is a Campus Bachelor Science, Technology and Society degree that prepares you for a Science career. Students enroll in the Bachelor of Science in Science, Technology and Society (STS) program because they are interested in discovering how and why the work and communication strategies of scientists, technologists and other professionals affect the social systems in which we all partake. STS majors begin their studies by exploring the theoretical and historical foundations of science and technology as they concern politics, economics and culture. During the second and third years, core courses present case studies and practical assignments that build on the fundamentals learned in the first year. Students also select an area of specialization, or create one of their own, and identify a topic for their senior projects. STS majors are continuously developing their abilities to analyze complex information, solve critical problems, and demonstrate their ethical awareness and sense of public responsibility. STS alumni attend medical, law or business graduate programs. Others go into businesses as diverse as environmental remediation to marketing and management. Still others engage in governmental, public policy, NGO administration or academia. Albert Dorman Honors College (ADHC) students may participate in accelerated and other pre-professional programs allied with Seton Hall University\\\'s law school or UMDNJ\\\'s Medicine, Physical Therapy (DPT) or Physician\\\'s Assistant programs. STS students are encouraged to participate in NJIT\\\'s Cooperative Education program and the B.S./M.S. program, and internships in a corporate, not-for-profit or government setting. STS encourages students in CSLA and other majors to consider a double major or minor in STS. During their senior year, double majors compose a senior thesis that places work done for their primary majors in an STS context.
