Technology & Society

The evolution of technology and way that it interacts with and shapes our society is a core part of all programs in our faculty. Our School of Communication’s Centre for Policy Research on Science and Technology (CPROST) is at the forefront of technology policies, while degree programs in the school equip students with the critical thinking to evaluate the way that communication technologies shape our lives. Students in our School for the Contemporary Arts and School of Interactive Arts and Technology also engage deeply with these topics, while courses in the Publishing Minor program examine the way technology is changing books and periodicals.
