You will be required to complete a project for the course that includes a final paper and presentation. It will address the intersection between a technological area of research at MIT that is of interest to you, with at least one of the frameworks for values and ethics presented in the class, while thinking critically about how to shape a better future via that research.
We look forward to interacting with you to help you shape your project into something successful; some class time will be devoted to student presentation and discussion of project proposals and there will be interim deadlines to help you get a draft done early. Projects may be done solo or in a team of 2. If you work in a team, all members of the team will be required to sign a joint statement of who contributed what to the project.
*** REMINDER: Attendance on the two final project presentation days is REQUIRED ***
