CONNECTION BETWEEN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
Science is the study of the natural world by scientific method i.e. collecting data through a systematic process. And technology is where we apply science to create devices that can solve problems and perform different tasks. Technology is literally the application of science. So, it is really impossible to separate the two. Science, innovation, and technology each represent a successively larger category of activities that are highly interdependent from each other but distinct. Science contributes to technology generally in six ways: • New knowledge which serves as a direct source of ideas for new technological innovations. • Source of tools and techniques for more efficient engineering designs and a knowledge base for evaluation of the feasibility of different new designs. • Research instrumentation and laboratory techniques used in research eventual...
