In the business world some of the highest paying jobs go to those who are scientifically and/or technically trained. Yet, science and technology are notoriously low on the list of hiring percentages for women. Is this because the science and technology industries discourage women, or because women are not interested in the science and technology industries? The answers might surprise you! This class will help you to understand the glass ceiling issues that exist in the science and technology industries and how those issues affect all of us, female and male, and the impact of those issues on our day to day lives. Through discussion, reading and guest speakers you will gain insight into the gendered nature of science and technology and how that impacts our innate thoughts and feelings about gender. Note: This course fulfills a Science & Technology (GS) requirement for students under GenEd and the Science & Technology Second Level (SB) requirement for students under Core.
