Nanotechnology: Content and Context (235) 2005 Fall
Rice University Texas Chemistry and Anthropology
The goal of "Nanotechnology: Context and Content" is to teach you some basic nanoscience/nanotechnology by putting it in a social and cultural context. Students are expected to learn both some basic science and technology and at the same time, some techniques for understanding the social and cultural significance, role, and possible effects of this emerging science. Students from from all majors are encouraged to take this class. In addition, students are expected to assist each other in learning and discussing the content and the context, and to maintain respect for both the scientific and the social and cultural approaches. The class is designed for, but not necessarily restricted to, freshlings and sophomores
