COS 351: Information Technology and Public Policy

New technologies have changed the way we communicate with each other and learn about our world. They have also raised public policy dilemmas in every area they touch: communications, regulation, privacy, national security, intellectual property and many others. This course aims to help students understand the technology behind the Internet; the social science concepts and research that illuminate the likely effects of policy options; and tradeoffs among fundamental values that different policy options imply.
