PHIL 226 - Philosophy, Technology, and Human Invention

3 hours


Technology and the sciences that make technologies possible impact almost all aspects of our lives. In this course we will study the philosophical foundations of technology as well as its relation to the sciences. We will explore such themes as the nature of technological knowledge and the relationship between science and technology. We will also examine social, political, and ethical issues that arise out of developing technologies. 

 

This course will satisfy the core area requirement in philosophy.
