This course explores the intersection of emerging technologies and global governance, focusing on the policies shaping their development and implementation. We will examine a range of innovative technologies, including artificial intelligence, biotechnology, and renewable energy systems, assessing their societal implications and regulatory challenges. Case studies, theoretical frameworks and current events will form the basis for the analysis of key topics such as ethical considerations, international standards, and the role of governmental and non-governmental organizations in technology governance. Students will collaborate on a technology design and policy project that will culminate in interactive presentations at the Washington DC campus.
