Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Technology Studies] From Grinnell College

This concentration examines technology and the role it plays in society. Courses provide a bridge between humanities, science, and social studies by integrating material from all three divisions. The study of technology not only crosses the divide between pure and applied science, but also between scientific and social or humanist perspectives on the development and role of technology. Students are required to obtain a grounding in laboratory science and statistics, take at least one foundation course, at least two specific technology courses, participate in an internship in a technological setting, and complete an independent study project or technology seminar, normally during the senior year.
