Addresses: 1) how gendered, racial, and class-based disparities have shaped the history of technology; 2) how forms of engineered inequity have intersected with state-building, colonial projects, environmental degradation, and revolutionary programs; 3) how technology has been implicated in attempts to imagine a more just society. Introduces central themes and concepts in the histories of science, medicine, and especially technology. Examines case-studies that are transnational in scope and move chronologically from the 17th century to the present. Also gives significant attention to histories of technology that originated outside of the U.S. and Europe. ### requirements text None ### credits min 3 ### credits max 4 ### credit offering ids * 1272:456:025992 ### llm job id enrich-f516c4d3e82cfe326b4f5f54 ### llm output id db70ada3644ecea14f0e610f8023254fcee28103c115a695a20b59db672513a7 ### llm model nvidia/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4 ### llm model revision 1355db6a052410cfd62085d94b58866fd0f2c3c5 ### llm task version 14 ### llm search status valid ### llm summary HISTSCI 160 introduces the history of technology through the lens of social inequality, examining how disparities shaped technological development and justice. ### llm topics * Gendered, racial, and class-based disparities in technology history * Engineered inequity, state-building, and colonial projects * Technology and social justice * Transnational case studies from the 17th century to present * Non-U.S. and non-European technology histories ### llm skills None recorded. ### llm assumed background None recorded. ### llm search phrases * history of technology inequality * gendered racial class technology history * engineered inequity state-building * transnational technology history * technology social justice history ### llm requirements status valid ### llm student summary status valid ### llm experience status valid ### catalog variants None recorded. ### student summary #### context hash 4b92bbf900a8269d00e13b7421c7f5f5b49335598ed191962dced32565ffc934 #### course id HISTSCI 160 #### current instructors ```json [ { "instructor_uid": "instructor_5bece5af1c5a97342c52b18d", "message": null, "name": "Daniel Williford", "review_status": "supported", "rmp_instructor_id": "rmp:2664788", "summary": [ { "citations": [ { "instructor_name": "Daniel Williford", "review_date": "2021-12-15 21:12:22 +0000 UTC", "review_id": "7921f306bf030fe2eb621415", "run_id": "20260907T155543-ce3781c4", "source_instructor_id": "rmp:2664788", "source_review_id": "UmF0aW5nLTM1NTQzMzg0", "source_url": "https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2664788", "type": "review" }, { "instructor_name": "Daniel Williford", "review_date": "2021-12-18 20:02:33 +0000 UTC", "review_id": "c8bf508f68796460286e8ebf", "run_id": "20260907T155543-ce3781c4", "source_instructor_id": "rmp:2664788", "source_review_id": "UmF0aW5nLTM1NTkwMjMz", "source_url": "https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2664788", "type": "review" }, { "instructor_name": "Daniel Williford", "review_date": "2021-12-22 05:17:37 +0000 UTC", "review_id": "862ba32381d305ee7fe45d04", "run_id": "20260907T155543-ce3781c4", "source_instructor_id": "rmp:2664788", "source_review_id": "UmF0aW5nLTM1NjI5MzAz", "source_url": "https://www.ratemyprofessors.com/professor/2664788", "type": "review" } ], "text": "Daniel Williford is described as a caring and accommodating instructor who provides clear grading criteria and reasonable workloads.
