Institute for Technology Law and Policy

Tags: Policy, Technology

Statement of Purpose

In recent decades, technology has reshaped every aspect of modern life, evolving more rapidly than law and policy. Located just steps from the U.S. Capitol, the Tech Institute’s mission is to close the gaps between law, policy, and technology and to advance justice, inclusion, and accountability at this critical intersection. The Tech Institute is a hub for policymakers, academics, advocates, and technologists to study and discuss how to center humans and the social good, using technology as a tool. We train the next generation of lawyers and lawmakers with deep expertise in technology law and policy and provide non-partisan insights to policymakers on issues relating to new and emerging technologies. With the leading academic program for law and technology in the United States, we also foster interdisciplinary approaches to solving complex technology law and policy problems. The Tech Institute also identifies and creates opportunities for technology to improve access to justice.

Walsh School of Foreign Service
Science Technology and International Affairs (STIA)
The Science, Technology and International Affairs (STIA) was founded in 1992 with the objective of educating future specialists in science and technology in global affairs, who work within and across diverse settings on science and technology challenges and opportunities. Histories of science and technology have had to reckon with and evolve past colonial origins, which have systematically overlooked voices, priorities, and finances of the global majority of people living outside wealthy nations. Given the diversity in what challenges and innovation STIA encompasses, it is imperative to consider whose innovation, voices, and recognition counts. Through the above actions, the STIA Program pledges to carry out its commitment toward fostering a student body, faculty, and staff that reflects, uplifts, and celebrates the diversity of humanity in race, caste, ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual identity, religion, and class.
