Explorations on the Culture of Science, Science Identity, and Society

Catalog description

This course will examine the historical and contemporary roles that the cultural norms and practices across STEM domains ("Culture of Science") have played in advancing persistent gender and racial/ethnic STEM inequities in the postsecondary context and beyond. By doing so this course will allow students to employ an interdisciplinary lens to begin to critically explore the impact that "Culture of Science" may have on the development and expression an individual's "Science Identity".
