STS programs: Singapore
From STS Wiki
The faculty of the STS Research Cluster at NUS consists of historians, sociologists, anthropologists, geographers, philosophers, critical theorists, media studies scholars, public policy scholars and others who share curiosity about how science and technology function in the social world.
Related to the STS Research Cluster is an Undergraduate sts Minor, which is open to students from any faculty in the university. NUS does not yet have an STS graduate program, but graduate students with this interest are accepted and supervised across a number of departments, and are free to participate in the activities of the cluster. The STS Research Cluster also sponsors post-doctoral and other visiting positions for scholars who share our research interests.
Because Singapore is a center for cutting-edge scientific and technological R&D, we are particularly (though not exclusively) interested in social science and humanities research which contextualizes this phenomenon, not only in Singapore but in Asia generally. As the only English-language center of STS-related research in East and Southeast Asia, we provide a unique site for collaboration with overseas scholars who are curious about the sci/tech-society relationship.
