ABOUT INFORMATION SCIENCE Creating technology with purpose. We design, build, and critically examine technology to understand its social, cultural, and economic impacts. Putting a human lens on technology. Information Science explores how computing intersects with human values, culture, and interaction. It goes beyond building technology to examine its real-world impact, adoption, and integration into everyday life. Beyond the build. In Information Science, we examine the interplay between people and technology — how tech shapes individual lives and society, and how computational methods help both.
