What this course explores
Scientific and technological development in historical and social context: the preservation and circulation of knowledge, industrial revolutions, digital change, and the relationship between science and society.
Through historical cases, visual examples, and discussion, we will practice distinguishing evidence from interpretation and explaining both the benefits and consequences of technical change.
