When we innovate, are we thinking critically about social and technical systems in a way that anticipates potential concerns so that we can be confident that what we are creating is both useful and good for our global future?
The School for the Future of Innovation in Society envisions responsible innovation at scale. Our students anticipate societal challenges and work across disciplines to examine areas such as global technology and development, biomedical and health ethics, public interest technology and policies for emerging technologies. We are grounded in the belief that by considering the ways in which we translate imagination into innovation, engaging the public and exploring the social impacts of technological and scientific advancements, we collectively build more just and equitable futures for all.
