Generatively Critical

Students will be invited to develop the skills of generative critique and mutually respectful transdisciplinary engagement. Social science students will be invited to engage with material flows; science students with the power of ideas. All students will engage with policy, governance, infrastructure, planning and decision-making.

Stemming from the best critical traditions of the 20th and 21st centuries we look at problems and disciplines in terms of their historical constitution and the relations of power they represent. However, critique of ideas alone are inadequate to the task of addressing current challenges.5
