技术与政策理学硕士

技术和政策计划（TPP）旨在培养寻求在技术的建设性开发和使用中发挥领导作用的学生，而传统的技术或社会科学专家教育并不能很好地满足这一领域的需求。TPP专注于满足工程师和科学家领导者的需求，他们不仅要拥有强大的技术基础，而且还要具备技能和能力，能够切实有效地应对21世纪技术挑战的经济，政治和行政方面。技术与政策科学硕士是一个工程研究学位，重点是技术在框架，制定和解决政策问题方面的日益重要的作用。许多学生将TPP的课程与相辅相成的科目相结合，以获得TPP的双学位以及工程专业或应用社会科学（例如政治科学或城市研
The Technology and Policy Program (TPP) educates students seeking leadership roles in the constructive development and use of technology-an area that is not well served by the traditional education of technical or social science specialists. TPP focuses on meeting the need for leaders who are engineers and scientists-people with not only strong technical foundations but also the skills and abilities to deal cogently and effectively with the economic, political, and administrative dimensions of the technological challenges of the 21st century. The Master of Science in Technology and Policy is an engineering research degree with a focus on the increasingly central role of technology in the framing, formulation, and resolution of policy problems. Many students combine TPP's curriculum with complementary subjects to obtain dual degrees in TPP and either a specialized branch of engineering or an applied social science, such as political science or urban studies and planning.
