The place where science, technology, and society meet. http://reilly.nd.edu
The Reilly Center explores conceptual, ethical, and policy issues where science and technology intersect with society from different disciplinary perspectives. Our purpose is to promote the advancement of science and technology for the common good.
The Reilly Center was established in 1985 and now supports a number of education, research, and outreach programs and initiatives, including the PhD program in History and Philosophy of Science, the undergraduate minor in Science, Technology, and Values, a Dual-Degree Arts & Letters/Engineering program, and research partnerships with NDNano (the Notre Dame Center for Nanoscience and Technology), the Notre Dame Environmental Change Initiative, and the Advanced Diagnostics and Therapeutics Initiative. The Reilly Center recently initiated its own research project called ETNSI, Emerging Technologies of National Security and Intelligence.

The John J. Reilly Center for Science, Technology, and Values brings the sciences and humanities together to explore the nature and impact of science and technology. We bring students, academics, and the public into conversation through education, research, and outreach. Through our education and degree programs, we inspire student reflection on connections between and across disciplines, exploring the historical, philosophical, and ethical dimensions of science and technology. Through our research initiatives, we encourage scholars to advance our understanding of the social impacts of science, technology, and their applications, to enlighten policy-making and foster sound governance. Through our outreach activities, we engage the public on the place of science and technology in our culture and in our world. We promote the advancement of science and technology in the service of human dignity and the common good.
