THE INTERSECTION OF SCIENCE AND ART

For Fall 2011, the NJIT Technology and Society Forum offers presentations that are inspirational and cautionary. The complementary dynamic of art and science is a force that can inspire imaginative, positive change for society — change that also requires effective analysis and resolution of complex challenges.
