Technological Science via distance learning
This program of technological science interconnects engineering and science to study technology in terms of its structure and function, its impact on the environment and the social and cultural context in which it is developed and used. It reviews the entire life cycle of a given technology, from its purpose, design and manufacture through to utilization and disposal or recycling. It focuses on what is actually feasible rather than what is merely conceivable, from a technological perspective. It also tries to anticipate future applications of technological know-how.
