Science Definition
•The observational & experimental study about the
behavior and structure of natural and physical
world around us.
•Science is also the understand of a specific are of
study by following particular methodology.
•In simple words, science is the observational study
of nature around us and natural things.
About science
•Science is what scientists do
•Science is trying to explain the world
around us
•Science is a system of knowledge
based on facts or principles
What is Engineering ?
• Engineering is the application of science and
math for solving problems
• Engineers look for new information for
application
What Engineers Do
THE ENGINEERING PROCESS
Scientist and Engineer
Contrasts between Science and
Engineering Science
Phylogeny (Evolution) Random phase through
quantitative phase
Quantitative phase and control
phase
Motivation Objects Objects of study Objects of creativity
Methods Inductive: large numbers of
facts suggest a unifying
concept
Deductive: a small set of basic
principles leads to specifics
Literature Incremental Conceptual
Synthesis Scientists need engineers to
show eventual applications
Engineers need scientists to
identify basic facts
