Center on Science and Technology being evaluated due to budget constraints

Princeton University is evaluating the future of its Center on Science and Technology amid broader budget cuts, with administrators considering a reorganization that could shift some of the center's work to other campus units. StudioLab staff learned Wednesday that the center will undergo reorganization in coming months following the suspension of federal research grants in April 2025, though the university guaranteed employment security through June 2027 and maintained that all programming will continue this academic year. Dean Michael Gordin said the review will focus on sustaining the center's most important components, potentially through expanded partnerships with existing departments.
