Addressing Needs for Contributions to Community, Society
Technology-related tensions suggest some needs
-
Understanding role of rigor, formal methodologies
-
Good comfort level with those methodologies
-
Understanding role of technology in society
-
Understanding of social, ethical issues
-
Understanding benefits, difficulties of specialization
-
Understanding tradeoffs of short- and long-term needs
UNITEC's doctoral program in professional practice seems to
address a number of such issues
I have not been at UNITEC long enough to know if other programs
also address such matters
BUT such topics are regularly omitted from many curricula
