Abstract
This year we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the department of Science, Technology and Society (STS) of Universiteit Utrecht. However, our roots go back to the seventies when each university in the Netherlands decided to establish Science & Society groups which should play a role in (1) preparing students for later jobs and activities in society, (2) enhancing awareness about the social responsibility of scientists, and (3) creating insight in the connection and relations between different sciences.
