Essay on Science and Technology for Students and Children

500+ Words Essay on Science and Technology

Essay on Science and Technology: Science and technology are important parts of our day to day life. We get up in the morning from the ringing of our alarm clocks and go to bed at night after switching our lights off. All these luxuries that we are able to afford are a resultant of science and technology . Most importantly, how we can do all this in a short time are because of the advancement of science and technology only. It is hard to imagine our life now without science and technology. Indeed our existence itself depends on it now. Every day new technologies are coming up which are making human life easier and more comfortable. Thus, we live in an era of science and technology.

Essentially, Science and Technology have introduced us to the establishment of modern civilization . This development contributes greatly to almost every aspect of our daily life. Hence, people get the chance to enjoy these results, which make our lives more relaxed and pleasurable.

Benefits of Science and Technology

If we think about it, there are numerous benefits of science and technology. They range from the little things to the big ones. For instance, the morning paper which we read that delivers us reliable information is a result of scientific progress. In addition, the electrical devices without which life is hard to imagine like a refrigerator, AC, microwave and more are a result of technological advancement.

Furthermore, if we look at the transport scenario, we notice how science and technology play a major role here as well. We can quickly reach the other part of the earth within hours, all thanks to advancing technology.

In addition, science and technology have enabled man to look further than our planet. The discovery of new planets and the establishment of satellites in space is because of the very same science and technology. Similarly, science and technology have also made an impact on the medical and agricultural fields. The various cures being discovered for diseases have saved millions of lives through science. Moreover, technology has enhanced the production of different crops benefitting the farmers largely.

India and Science and Technology

Ever since British rule, India has been in talks all over the world. After gaining independence, it is science and technology which helped India advance through times. Now, it has become an essential source of creative and foundational scientific developments all over the world. In other words, all the incredible scientific and technological advancements of our country have enhanced the Indian economy.

Looking at the most recent achievement, India successfully launched Chandrayaan 2. This lunar exploration of India has earned critical acclaim from all over the world. Once again, this achievement was made possible due to science and technology.

In conclusion, we must admit that science and technology have led human civilization to achieve perfection in living. However, we must utilize everything in wise perspectives and to limited extents. Misuse of science and technology can produce harmful consequences. Therefore, we must monitor the use and be wise in our actions.

Innovation, Society & Public Policy (Innovationsforschung)

Master’s thesis inquiries.

The Innovation, Society & Public Policy (ISPP) research group welcomes inquiries for the supervision of Master’s theses in any of the existing projects as well as on other topics focusing on the intersection of innovation, society, and politics.

If you are interested in writing your Master thesis with us, please make sure to consider the following points before requesting a meeting:

• Our group is principally interested in the social and political questions surrounding technology, innovation, management, and economics. If you want to work with us, your thesis must include at least some component dedicated to these questions, even if you are conducting your thesis work at a company. If you are not interested in social and political questions, this group is not for you.
• It is strongly recommended that you have completed at least one course in the field of Science and Technology Studies at the STS department before commencing your thesis work.
• Please include in your e-mail a statement of your overall research interests (ideally a thesis abstract on the topic you wish to pursue, the literature and concepts you’d like to draw on, and some suggestions for empirical scope- max 2 pages). Please make sure to indicate how your ideas fit with the topics investigated by our group if not evident.
• Please also consider the opportunity to contribute to ongoing ISPP research projects through empirical and theoretical work. If your research interest fits into one of our projects, please mention that in your email.
• As a preparation for a productive first appointment with your prospective adviser, include in your email a brief summary of your research skills (research design, experience in data collection, qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis) as well as a CV , which states your educations trajectory and research-related experiences in and outside of academia.
• Please find out whether or not your program’s regulations allow you to write your master’s thesis with us. We may officially supervise theses at STS department and the School of Management and potentially externally for other departments upon prior arrangement (for which you might need an official internal advisor from your own department). If you have any doubts about formalities, contact your student advisor or the registrar’s office first before talking to us.
• Please send an e-mail to Johanna Hopp with any inquiries.

If your research interest is compatible with our group, you will then be asked to develop – in coordination with a group member – a thesis proposal that shows how you intend to work on the proposed topic (theoretical approach, hypotheses, research design, materials and methods).

Science and technology have become a debated topic in society. On the one hand, it is necessary for the modern life where other countries continuously develop in science and technology. It becomes necessary for other countries to grow in the same way to be strong and well-developed as other countries for future safety and security. It is science and technology which helps other weak countries to develop and be strong.

We have to take support science and technology forever to improve the way of life for the betterment of humanity. Suppose we do not take the help of technologies such as computers, the internet, electricity, etc. In that case, we cannot be economically strong in the future and will be backward forever, even if we cannot survive in such a competitive and technological world.

Advancements in medicine, agriculture, education, economy, sports, games, jobs, tourism, etc., are the examples of science and technology. All such advancements show us how both are equally beneficial for our life. We can see a clear difference in our lifestyle while matching the old and modern way of life.
