  • HIST 333: Science, Technology, and Society in the Renaissance

    3.00 Credits
    Clarkson University

Beginning with mathematical perspective and ending with the new scientific method, this courses will chart the extraordinary technological and scientific advances and profound economic and social changes that together mark the birth of the modern world.
