The Computing, Culture & Society certificate prepares students to understand the social, political, and historical implications of computing technology. There are a variety of world-class courses around the university that situate computing within these broader cultural contexts, but they are spread across a dozen departments. This certificate is a pedagogical roadmap to those courses, both for computer science (CS) and other majors who want to study the cultural and humanistic implications of computing.
