HSSC6600 - Research Seminar: History of Technology

This is a research seminar for beginning and mid-level graduate students. Emphasis will be on research and writing, and there will also be some broad reading and classroom discussion. A great deal of time is allotted for students to become familiar with the archival resources in the region, for individual meetings, peer review, and writing. The goal of the semester will be for each student to produce a first draft of a publishable research paper (7500-9000 words) in the history of technology
broadly conceived.
