UCSTS Network

Distributed across the University of California is an unmatched collection of STS resources. UC campuses are looking to join their strengths. We hope to:

• Deepen knowledge of each campus's faculty and course offerings.
• Build on UC's provisions for intercampus cooperation in supervising graduate students.
• Work together in inviting visitors and planning events.
• Develop collaborations in research and teaching.
• Lay the groundwork for multicampus grant proposals.
• Invigorate our scholarship with our variety of perspectives.

Starting from a network comprised of representatives from Berkeley, Davis, San Francisco, and Santa Cruz, we are developing contacts throughout the UC system. We also seek connections with other institutions in our area to develop a wider STS network. We enthusiastically welcome all inquiries.

In 2005-06 the University of California Humanities Research Institute - UCHRI (Irvine) supported STSC in assisting northern UC campuses in developing our collaborative network. UCHRI continues to be a strong supporter of STS multi-campus endeavors.

A UCHRI funded workshop will be held in the 2007-2008 academic year. See our events page for details.
