Modules and Courses

UCL Department of Science and Technology Studies (STS) offers modules in history of science, philosophy of science, science policy, and science communication. We use the prefix HPSC.

STS offers over one hundred modules in our full catalogue. Not every module is taught every year. STS Module Catalogues are published annually. They list modules we plan to offer in the upcoming academic session and the term in which we expect to teach them.

STS students are actively engaged far beyond traditional sit-and-listen lectures

Searching for a Module Syllabus?

The "syllabus" for a module offers the instruction manual for a class. It includes aims and objectives, lecture schedule, assignments, and readling lists. STS maintains a library of syllabi for past offers of our modules. This is meant to guide students on module selection. However, remember, tutors review module syllabi on a regular basis and updates can be expected. Use this library for guidance purposes only.
