VII. Course Description

The course deals with interactions between science and technology and social, cultural, political, and economic contexts that shape and are shaped by them. (CMO
No. 20, series of 2013) This interdisciplinary course engages students to confront the realities brought about by science and technology in society. Such realities pervade
the personal, the public, and the global aspects of our living and are integral to human development. Scientific knowledge and technological development happen in the
context of society with all its socio-political, cultural, economic, and philosophical underpinnings at play. This course seeks to instill reflective knowledge in the students
that they are able to live the good life and display ethical decision making in the face of scientific and technological advancement.

This course includes mandatory topics on climate change and environmental awareness.
