SUMMARY:Science & Justice Training Program Informational Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join the Science & Justice Research Center on Friday\, October 24th at 2PM on Zoom for an Informational Meeting on our internationally recognized interdisciplinary Graduate Training and Certificate Program. \nRegister at: https://ucsc.zoom.us/meeting/register/u6h-cJvDQBiscaNIJpzVUw. \nOur Science & Justice Training Program (SJTP) is a globally unique initiative that trains doctoral students to work across the disciplinary boundaries of the natural and social sciences\, engineering\, humanities and the arts. Through the SJTP we at UC Santa Cruz currently teach new generations of PhD students the skills of interdisciplinary collaboration\, ethical deliberation\, and public communication. Students in the program design collaborative research projects oriented around questions of science and justice. These research projects not only contribute to positive outcomes in the wider world\, they also become the templates for new forms of problem-based and collaborative inquiry within and beyond the university. \nAs SJTP students graduate they take the skills and experience they gained in the training program into the next stage of their career in universities\, industry\, non-profits\, and government. \nOpportunities include graduate Certificate Program\, experience organizing and hosting colloquia series about the research projects\, mentorship\, potential for additional research funding and training in conducting interdisciplinary research at the intersections of science and society. \nWINTER 2026 / WINTER 2027 COURSE SERIES:\nScience & Justice: Experiments in Collaboration\, taught by Associate Professor of Critical Race Science and Technology Studies Kriti Sharma is scheduled for Tuesday’s 1:00-4:00 pm. Science and Justice Research Seminar will be offered in Winter 2027. Enrollment in the courses is required for participating in the Training Program. Attending the informational meeting is strongly encouraged\, but not required. \nStudents from all disciplines are encouraged to attend. Prior graduate fellows have come from every campus Division and have represented 24 departments. \nPast collaborative research projects have included: \n\nPhysicists working with small scale farmers to develop solar greenhouses scaled to local farming needs.\nColloquia about the social and political consequences of scientific uncertainties surrounding topics such as climate change research\, food studies\, genomics and identity.\nExamining how art can empower justice movements.\nWorking with local publics to improve African fishery science.\n\nFor more information on the Science & Justice Training Program\, visit: https://scijust.ucsc.edu/about-sjrc/sjtp/.
