Science has been at the center of important scientific discovery since its founding in 1880—with seed money from Thomas Edison. Today, Science continues to publish the very best in research across the sciences, with articles that consistently rank among the most cited in the world. In the last half century alone, Science published:
The entire human genome for the first time
Never-before seen images of the Martian surface
The first studies tying AIDS to human immunodeficiency virus
In this video, it shows an HKUST engineering showing how an engineer goes from identifying problems to coming up with a viable solution. As you watch it, see how in less than 3.5 minutes he:
Explains the origin of the problem (questions)
Drawbacks of the electric field device for water disinfection(originally)
Design problems (barriers) that needed to be considered in engineering solutions.
How engineers think creatively
In this video, Prof. Christine Bruce explains that being information literate help you find creative and innovative ways of doing things, which is invaluably advantageous to your wider profession.
