The following points show that how science and technology influence industrialization
INTRODUCTION
.According
to Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), Science is the knowledge of consequences, and
dependence of one fact upon another. Technology is the “Application of
knowledge to the practical aims of human life or to changing and manipulating
the human environment. Technology includes the use of materials, tools,
techniques, and sources of power to make life easier or more pleasant and work
more productive.”
Backgroung
of science and technology in tanzania since the establishment of the commision
for science and technology (costech)Tanzania
Commission for Science and Technology (COSTECH) was established by an Actof
Parliament No. 7 of 1986 as a successor to the Tanzania National Scientific
Research Council (UTAFITI). COSTECH is a government parastatal organization
under the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology (MoEST). It is charged
with coordinating and promoting science and technology development activities
in the country. Since 1986, COSTECH has been the principal advisory organ to
the government on all matters relating to scientific research, innovation,
technology development and transfer, and recommends its implementation. In
terms of improving youths in science and technology so they can become
self-employed and thus address the problem of unemployment,
The
following points show that how science and technology influence
industrialization
Improved
physical communication with the help
of improved technological advances in telecommunication, computing, fibre
optics and satellites. As resulted in the speeding up of information flow
and the transportation of goods across nations more quickly and efficiently .
This is being achieved through the technologies, that is at the heart of the
communication and transportation globalization, which is ongoing. for stimulate
industrial activity
Technology like the
Internet has given rise to E-commerce; E-commerce that
refers to business conducted through means of electronic communication networks
like Internet. That has brought about new dynamics to the globalization of
businesses. Where virtual business can be set up and trade worldwide without
any barriers stopping them. For example business like Amazon, Borders and eBay
that have sprung up because of Internet have transformed the way small business
operate and have given opportunity to individuals to enter these global
markets.
Technology push
existence of raw materials and these raw materials act as the engineer
industrialization because industries cannot perform without presence of raw materials,
so science and technology push development of agriculture sector and this
sector play great role to the development of industrialization Science and
technology play great role to the industrialization because through advance of
science using in agriculture as well
contribute availability of raw material
It influence
improvement of infrastructure like roads and railways, these means of transport influence much
industrialization to existence smoothly, so movements of labour, materials and
administrators existence smoothly and
finally industrialization appear easy
Science and technology
influence existence of engineering activities and these activities play great
role the existence of industrialization. Several innovations take place through
the programmes of Tanzania Commission of Science and Technology
The
benefits that are certain to flow from technological revolution in an
increasingly connected world and knowledge-intensive world will be seized by
those countries and companies that are alive to the rapidly changing
environment, and nimble enough to take advantage of the opportunities. Those
that succeed will make substantial advances in reducing poverty and inequality
Helped
increased globalization. Technological
globalization benefited economically as technologies like airplane, container
ships have allowed CHINA to export its goods to Europe and US vice versa and
allowed countries to exploit their comparative advantage in trade,
CONCLUSION
Generally Science and Technology influence much development of
industrialization because science and technology contribute other potential
sectors that facilitate existence of industrialization
