Research and engineering
Science and technology names a broad field encompassing systematic knowledge of the natural world and its practical applications.
The phrase treats the two as a unified domain—research and its implementation, discovery and invention.
It appears in academic departments, government agencies, and journalism as a category: the science and technology section, a degree in science and technology studies.
