• Providing an independent subsidiary major and advanced program to graduate students throughout the university
• Utilizing humanities and social sciences education resources in honor university programs (such as those for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields) and other department-sponsored subsidiary major and advanced programs
• Offering ELSI courses, with a focus on medical, dental, pharmaceutical, and science and technology fields

Program Objectives

The primary objective of this program is to foster ELSI human resources by leveraging the existing STiPS program and expanding its reach across the university. This includes providing educational resources and courses that cater to a broad range of disciplines, ensuring a comprehensive approach to science, technology, and innovation policy studies.
