Program Requirements
The STS minor consists of a Core and a set of electives, and entails a minimum of 12 units of course work. The STS
Core courses cover four distinct thematic areas:
•
•
•
•
Social and Philosophical Issues in Science and Engineering
Engineering and Ethics
Science and Religion
Sustainability and Engineering
Students will be required to take courses in at least three of the Core areas outlined above (for a minimum of 6 units).
The remaining units (up to a total of 12, or more if desired) can be accumulated by taking a combination of electives and
additional STS Core courses.
The courses and the different thematic areas to which they belong are listed below. Note that courses which appear in
multiple areas can be used to satisfy only one Core requirement (in other words, no "double dipping" is allowed).
