Professor Bucciarelli received his B.S. from Cornell University

and Astronautics, 1966). He was Director of MIT's Technology
Studies Program, and has been a Curator of Science and Technology
at the Smithsonian, Visiting Fellow at the University of Sussex,
and Visiting Scientist at the Centre de Sociologie de l'Innovation
(Ecole des Mines, Paris). He has received the Baker Award for

range of industries, and has helped lead a coalition of engineering
schools (ECSEL) in the renovation of undergraduate
education.
In engineering, he works on the development of alternative energy
and residential energy instrumentation systems. In STS he has moved
from studies of 19th century physical science to ethnographic
studies of the engineering design process. He is the author of
Designing Engineers (1995).
