PhD programme
The doctoral program is a vibrant community that regularly meets in reading groups, a work in progress seminar series, and many other occasional initiatives. Students are able to take advantage of networking opportunities with prominent London museums, academies and research institutions. PhD graduates at UCL-STS have continued to successful academic careers in the UK and overseas, while others have taken up careers in policy, business and cultural institutions championing science communication and engagement.
Science, Culture, and Democracy
Investigating how the sciences interact with culture in democratic and other political contexts enables us to understand, intervene and improve this relationship. Our interests within this research cluster divide into three inter-connected themes, which we review on an annual basis:
History of Science
The History of Science research cluster has a common interest in how knowledge, and the practices it has entailed, shaped and was shaped by past societies. Our goal is to recover, understand and communicate the rich variety of routes to scientific knowledge that can be found in the past and make the present.
Philosophy of Science
Philosophy of Science is a research cluster in UCL Department of Science and Technology Studies (STS).
