Topic: Science and Technology in the Pacific Century (STIP). This interdisciplinary course will examine the changing state of science and technology (S&T) in the Asia-Pacific, its impact on the nations of the region, and its significance for the United States. We will draw on a wide range of scholarship including business, law, humanities, social science, engineering and the sciences. The class is designed to engage students and faculty who (a) have an interest in Asia and want to explore the role of S&T developments in Asia, (b) have an interest in the study of S&T as social phenomena more generally and are intrigued by the Asian case, or (c) whose careers are related to sciences or technologies that are likely to be strongly affected by developments in the Asia-Pacific. Faculty from different disciplines will take turns leading the discussion. A scientific or technological background is not required, nor is familiarity with the social scientific study of science/technology; we also welcome students with no Asia background. This course is part of a year-long initiative (STIP) that includes a public events series; many world famous scholars and practitioners will come to campus in conjunction with STIP and will join in seminar sessions. Meets with CAS 587 GH.
