About WeAreSTS
Episodes explore research or teaching themes that are part of Science and Technology Studies (STS). Some episodes are interviews about active research projects. Other episodes support STS teaching or public engagement. We also have career-focused episodes interviewing STS alumni about life after university: how did they make that transition into their working life, and what advice do they have for those thinking about studying with us? We also have episodes contributed from the STSNewsRoom.
