Humanities for STEM is a research collaborative at New York University that focuses on how the study of primary sources, archival research, and associated methodologies of the humanities can be used to enhance the understanding of science (including medicine), technology, engineering, and mathematics. At this symposium, faculty, librarians, archivists, and others will come together to discuss this theme.

This event is free and open to the public, but participants must register for each day of the symposium. For more information and to register, please visit the EventBrite.

Funded by NYU’s Center for the Humanities, the Humanities for STEM collaborative explores the ways in which archives and special collections can support scholarship and education in the sciences, discuss the ways in which scholars in the sciences and humanities use archival collections, and expose scholars to STEM-related archives, with a particular focus on collections at NYU and the NYC area.
