ChocoLeibniz Posted February 12, 2015 Posted February 12, 2015 Hi everyone, I couldn't find a thread on STS nor on history/sociology/anthropology of science, so I decided to start one. I am on of the Rensselaer STS acceptances this week. I saw that three other people have posted their results, and I'd love to hear from you! Where have you guys also applied? What do you think about the RPI STS program? I am an international student and I also applied to Cornell, Harvard, UCSD and UPenn. Based on previous years, I think results will be sent around next week, right? quilledink 1
kateosee Posted February 17, 2015 Posted February 17, 2015 Hi there! I'll chime in to help soften the silence. I'm not applying to an STS degree but I will be completing an STS certificate and I'm currently in the STS core class for it. I'll be in America Culture but focusing on the history of medicine. Congrats on the acceptance!!
quilledink Posted February 18, 2015 Posted February 18, 2015 Hi ChocoLeibniz! An STS thread--at last! Thanks for starting one I'm also one of the RPI admits--feel free to PM me. I'd love to chat about RPI and their STS program with you! Otherwise, I'm also waiting to hear back from Cornell, Harvard, and UPenn, as well as a few other schools. Best of luck to you!

Nooooope Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Canadian here. I've applied to the University of Toronto for History and Philosophy of Science and Technology and York University for Science and Technology Studies. Good luck all!
smg Posted February 21, 2015 Posted February 21, 2015 Hey Choco, There are a number of folks who use the Anthro forums who are interested in STS. I happen to be one of them. Good luck with your applications.
ChocoLeibniz Posted February 22, 2015 Author Posted February 22, 2015 Thank you smg, I hadn't thought about checking the anthro forum. Maybe sts is more popular there than among historians, at least here on gradcafe! Best of luck with your applications too!
The Pedanticist Posted February 24, 2015 Posted February 24, 2015 I work in the rhetoric and philosophy of science and have interests that spill over into this area. I applied to mostly comm studies programs and will work on the area through comm.
ChocoLeibniz Posted February 28, 2015 Author Posted February 28, 2015 I saw that there is an acceptance to Cornell Science and Technology Studies, congrats!! Did they already send the rejections too? Does anyone know how many people they accepted this year?
