The Nebraska Governance and Technology Center has announced its third class of faculty fellows.

The fellows are a cohort of academics who are drawn from across the university and are interested in the challenges of changing technology. Each of the faculty fellows approach their research with an interdisciplinary inclination. The goal of the Fellows program is to form a unit of academics who study technology in interdisciplinary terms: transposing language from their chosen field into the study of technology involving law, humanities, sciences, and other fields.

2022-23 University of Nebraska Faculty Fellows from the College of Arts and Sciences:

  • Eve Brank, psychology
  • Ingrid Haas, political science
  • Mark van Roojen, philosophy

This year's fellows programming will bring in workshop speakers from across the country and invite fellows in the classroom with Nebraska Governance and Technology students. Fellows will participate in lectures, various sessions, and receive networking opportunities.

The Nebraska Governance and Technology Center studies the ever-changing relationship between law and technology — how the law can regulate technology and how new technologies affect what the law can do.
