Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTim Schütz is a social scientist and digital designer specializing in environmental governance, critical data studies, and public knowledge infrastructures, with eight years of experience bridging research, pedagogy, and archival practice. As a researcher with UCI’s EcoGovLab and lead on the Formosa Plastics Global Archive, he develops collaborative digital workspaces that make environmental harms legible across transnational contexts. He designs and digitizes scholarly archives (now for the George E. Marcus & Critical Cultural Theory Archive) and builds accessible tools and campaigns—like #UnPink Santa Ana—that translate research into public-facing action. Tim’s work sits at the intersection of STS, data infrastructures, and environmental justice, combining ethnographic sensibilities with hands-on digital curation to reveal how data gains or loses political power. An unexpected strength is his fluency moving between academic publishing, museum and advocacy partnerships, and classroom-scale open-access pedagogy to create usable knowledge for diverse publics.
