Campus center / program:
The Newkirk Center for Science and Society was established in May 2001, with a generous endowment provided by Martha and James Newkirk, frequent benefactors to the University of California. The Center's goals are to improve science's response to community needs and to increase the effective uses of scientific results for the benefit of society.
Established in 2006, the Center for Ethnography will work to develop at the University of California, Irvine a series of sustained theoretical and methodological conversations about ethnographic research practices across the disciplines that will have a broadly transformative effect on ethnographic research methodologies and theoretical developments. The Center will support innovative collaborative ethnographic research as well as research on the theoretical and methodological refunctioning of ethnography for contemporary cultural, social and technological transformations. One aim of the Center is to foster methodological innovation in ethnography across the campus. More broadly, however, its goal is to situate the University of California Irvine at the center of such innovations internationally.
