CSTMS maintains several on-going projects.  Each of these projects may involve workshops, summer schools, our other events, all gathered around a common theme.

BerkeleyDesignSTS

This Special Project aims to foster dialogue among the design studies community, professional designers and architects, historians, and science and technology studies scholars. Some of the themes that we are engaging within this project include: materials and their politics; fabrication, labor, and craft; the built, the made, the real, the discursive; changing conditions of knowledge- and thing-production; new and old; innovating, imitating, and replicating. Find out more.

Nuclear Futures

This Special Project aims to bring into conversation leading figures from humanistic and social-scientific study of science and technology with colleagues from science and engineering and from policy and advocacy groups. It spotlights the analytical tools used in this domain, ranging from performance assessment (nuclear
 engineering) to surveys (sociology) to studies of nuclear imaginaries (cultural studies of science). Find out more.
