The MA in Innovation Studies explores the complex and dynamic relationsbetween the social and technological forces that shape the innovation process in an international context. The programme draws upon the ethics, politics and regulation of science and technology, relating these to theories in STS (Science, Technology and Society) and the management of innovation.
A further aim is to understand how and why the costs and benefits of innovationare distributed unevenly in society, particularly from the standpoint of democracy, employment, economic and social justice, race/gender and environmental sustainability. For additional information, go here.
