“…To make participation possible, it is necessary to seek mechanisms that allow social actors to be informed and interested in issues related to the consequences and effects of a given technological development. The importance then of a literacy in STS issues that allows us to understand in a contextualized and daily way the positive and negative effects of technology is a condition to make possible public participation that democratizes decisions on technological developments (Jiménez Becerra et al, 2020).…”

Based on the teaching experience of the Engineering, Technology and Society Network, this paper analyzes the contributions made by STS studies to engineering education. This network offers educational perspectives for engineering students in their first semesters of higher education and has added recently a graduate education approach. This article describes how STS scholarship contributed a comprehensive view of technology, interdisciplinarity and development of critical thinking. Finally, it reviews STS education through active teaching and design in context, and describes the emergence of a graduate certificate program under an engineering, technology and society approach. This program combines engineering, social participation, technological assessment and STS thinking.
