CITS coordinates the optional Information Technology & Society Ph.D. Emphasis program for students enrolled in participating departments at UCSB. The emphasis is a degree supplement that provides multi-disciplinary training for graduate students in participating departments planning dissertations dealing with the societal implications of information technology. To participate, students must gain admission to and be enrolled as a Ph.D. student in one of the following departments at UCSB: Anthropology, Communication, Computer Science, English, Film and Media Studies, Geography, History, Linguistics, Media, Arts & Technology, Political Science, the Gevirtz Graduate School of Education, Global Studies, the Bren School of Environmental Science and Management, Psychological and Brain Sciences, Sociology, or the Technology Management Program. The study of information technology and society is inherently multi-disciplinary. Most scholars working in this area ground their investigations and claims in a home discipline and methodology, but find themselves of necessity exploring literatures and paradigms from other disciplines as well. In some cases, the tools necessary for understanding problems fully are spread across disciplines, and in others it is simply the case that many scholars have arrived at an examination of the same phenomenon from different directions.
