The Center for Work, Technology, and Organization is located within Stanford's Department of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management. MS&E offers the only doctoral program in organization studies in the United States located in an engineering school. Our doctoral students combine studies in engineering, management, sociology, and psychology to build a unique and balanced perspective. At WTO we strive to understand the interaction of technologies and organizations through the study of work practices. Using both qualitative and quantitative research designs we study how people and organizations shape and are shaped by modern technologies. Our goal is to develop new theories of work that can help individuals and organizations anticipate and adapt to the challenges and opportunities occasioned by technological change and changes in the nature of work. Our central location in the Silicon Valley gives us excellent access to many high-tech organizations. We collaborate with several industrial partners including Sun Microsystems, Hewlett Packard, Xerox PARC, IDEO/Steel Case, and IBM Consulting. The faculty welcomes applications from students with either social science or technical degrees. The mixing of engineering and social science is the department's trademark.
