Science,
Technology, and Society
the Program in
Science, Technology,
and Society attempts
to increase human
understanding of the
human-built world.
Science and
technology are no
longer specialized
enterprises confined
to factories and
laboratories: they
have become
intertwined with
each other and with
human society. The
fundamental
contribution of STS
is to look at the
human-built world as
an integrated whole.
Health sciences and
Technology
Founded more than 30
years ago, HST is
one of the oldest
and largest
biomedical
engineering and
physician-scientist
training programs in
the United States
and the
longest-standing
collaboration
between Harvard and
MIT. From the
beginning, HST
pioneered a new way
of thinking about
the very processes
that govern life and
disease, breaking
down barriers that
impede
interdisciplinary
education and
collaborative
research and
creating an
environment that
brings innovation
from the laboratory
bench to the
bedside, and
clinical insight
from the bedside to
the bench.
* Engineering
Chemical Engineering
Introduction to
dynamic processes
and the engineering
tasks of process
operations and
control. Subject
covers modeling the
static and dynamic
behavior of
processes; control
strategies; design
of feedback,
feedforward, and
other control
structures;
model-based control;
applications to
process equipment.

Engineering
Engineering System Division
The Engineering
Systems Division
(ESD) creates and
shares
interdisciplinary
knowledge about
complex engineering
systems through
initiatives in
education, research,
and industry
partnerships. ESD
broadens engineering
practice to include
the context of each
challenge as well as
the consequences of
technological
advancement.
Biological
Engineering
Defining and
establishing a new
discipline fusing
molecular life
sciences with
engineering. The
goal of our
biological
engineering
discipline, Course
20, is to advance
fundamental
understanding of how
biological systems
operate and to
develop effective
biology-based
technologies for
applications across
a wide spectrum of
societal needs
including
breakthroughs in
diagnosis,
treatment, and
prevention of
disease, in design
of novel materials,
devices, and
processes, and in
enhancing
environmental
health. The
innovative
educational programs
created by BE
reflect this
emphasis on
integrating
molecular and
cellular biosciences
with a quantitative,
systems-oriented
engineering analysis
and synthesis
approach, offering
opportunities at the
undergraduate level
for the SB degree in
Biological
Engineering, and at
the graduate level
for the Ph.D. in
Biological
Engineering (with
emphasis in either
Applied Biosciences
or Bioengineering).
* Psychology
Anthrpology
Anthropology studies humankind from a
comparative perspective that emphasizes the
diversity of human behavior and the importance
of culture in explaining that diversity.

Brain and
Cognitive Sciences
The human brain is
the most complex, sophisticated, and powerful
information-processing device known. To study
its complexities, the Department of Brain and
Cognitive Sciences at the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology combines the
experimental technologies of neurobiology,
neuroscience, and psychology, with the
theoretical power that comes from the fields of
computational neuroscience and cognitive
science.
