Does science and technology influence industrialization
Does
science and technology influence industrialization. How?
Hewitt,
(1992) define Science as the body of knowledge involves the systematic study of
the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through the
observation (social science) and experiment (natural science). It is the
knowledge which is acquired through systematic study or practice.
Technology
means the application of science for practical purpose. It’s application of
scientific knowledge to solve problems. Therefore technology produce wealthy by
use the knowledge produced by science.
Hewitt,
(1992) define Industrialization as the process of applying machines in the
production in every field of life. This process increasing production and
minimize time spending in production process.
The Tanzania government through Tanzania development goals of 2025 plain
to industrialize all sectors in 2025
It’s
true that science and technology has great roles towards industrialization. The following are the factors on how science
and technology influence industrialization.
Through
scientific research, the research findings and conclusions leads to innovation
and discovered of various machines that applied in various sector such as
industrial, agriculture, transport sectors in which their influence
industrialization. Therefore, scientific research that leads innovation of various
machine applied in industry influence industrialization. In Tanzania through
Tanzania's development vision
of 2025 emphasize on scientific research by encouraging and funding
various scientific research projects that will lead innovation of
machine and other technological equipment
applied in industry sector and in
other sectors like agriculture so as to
solve the problem of lack of technology
in production process. Example there is Naliendele agricultural research in Mtwara
that produce different modern chemical and seeds to improvement agriculture
sectors.
Science
and technology leads infrastructure developmental. The development of transport
system and infrastructure such as road, railways, Port, airport and buildings, The transport system facilitate transportation of raw materials to feeds industry and transport manufactured goods and services
to internal and external market .as
result lead industrialization because
it prepared conducive environment
for investors with modern technology to
come and invest in industry and other sectors.. Tanzania through its Tanzania development vision of 2025
start to work out on developing transport
system in both rule and urban areas that facilitates transportation of raw materials and manufacturing goods and services to internal and external market as well as transfer workers
to work places. And this will giant industrialization in Tanzania.
Science
and technology leads innovation and discovered of various machines and devices
that applied on production system in Industry and other economic sectors as
result leads industrialization. Tanzania’s
development vision of 2025 plan to employ machine that discovered from science
research to small industry, middle industry and processing industry
like
SIDO, sugarcane industry, textile
industry. Tanzania government
funding and provides some assistance like capital to those industry.
Science
and technology influence availability of
power such as electric power and gas power which are very essential in industry
to operate Industry machines as result leads industrialization because these
machines used in industrial production demand
adequate power that exploited from water, gas ,wind, and sun
through various innovated technology as
result leads industrialization. Tanzania
through Tanzania's development vision of 2025 start to invest in electric and
gas power to ensure the availability of power that will be applied in industry
to giant industrialization in Tanzania.
Example standard gorge electricity power projects
Science
and technology influence the development of agriculture. The application of different machine,
chemicals, and ant-pest medical that brought from scientific research lead
development of agriculture .The agriculture products used as raw materials to
feeds industry as result industrialization. Tanzania its vision of 2025
encouraging agriculture by provide subsides and aids like
chemicals, seeds, machines and fertilizer to be applied in
farming by farmers.
Science
and technology improve education system that facilitates the availability of skilled
labor who works in industry to manage and operate various machines and lead industrialization. Due to the development of ICT facilitate the
availability of books and other academic materials easy that increase educated
people and improve education system.
Tanzania's development vision of
2025 insist on employing technology devices to improve education systems and
gets enough skilled labor and literate people to operate various machines in industry and in management
department as result facilitates industrialization
in Tanzania.
Generally,
Tanzania government through its
development vision of 2025 expect
to reach middle economy in 2025 by improving education system, agriculture sector, transport system by employing the use of
technology and preparing conducive environment to internal and external
investors in various sector . And also government
it's self invest and funding various
sectors as well as encouraging science and technology research to improve
science and technology that cope up with Tanzania culture and environment.
