  • There's nothing I believe in more strongly than getting young people interested in science and engineering, for a better tomorrow, for all humankind. -- Bill Nye
  • We are more dependent on science and engineering than at any other time in history. However, there is plenty of evidence that far too many people are scientifically illiterate, often having been put off science at school. -- Robert Winston
  • I think of it as a good opportunity to let, in particular, school kids know that this job and other interesting jobs in science and engineering are open to anyone who works hard in school and gets a good education and studies math and science. And that it's not just for a select group of people. -- Ellen Ochoa

  • Art and design are not luxuries, nor somehow incompatible with science and engineering, -- Bran Ferren
  • I believe in the unlimited power of women in the context of science and engineering. -- Elizabeth Holmes
  • I went to a school that's predominantly computer science and engineering. So, there's a real shortage of hot girls, let's say. -- Joe Manganiello
  • I was attracted to things that combined art and science equally. I've always been equally interested in art design, science and engineering. -- Bran Ferren
  • Most people don't realize that it's not just minorities who don't do well in science and engineering - quite frankly, you're talking about Americans. -- Freeman A. Hrabowski III
  • [M]anufacturing, science and engineering are ... incredibly creative. I'd venture to say more so than creative advertising agencies and things that are known as the creative industries. -- James Dyson
  • Recession doesn't deserve the right to exist. There are just too many things to be done in science and engineering to be bogged down by temporary economic dislocations. -- Walt Disney
  • Everybody should be ashamed who uses the wonders of science and engineering without thinking and having mentally realized not more of it than a cow realizes of the botany of the plants which it eats with pleasure. -- Albert Einstein
  • The future is better than the past. Despite the crepe hangers, romanticists, and anti-intellectuals, the world steadily grows better because the human mind, applying itself to environment, makes it better. With hands ... with tools ... with horse sense and science and engineering. -- Robert A. Heinlein
  • The inspirational value of the space program is probably of far greater importance to education than any input of dollars... A whole generation is growing up which has been attracted to the hard disciplines of science and engineering by the romance of space. -- Arthur C. Clarke
  • Manufacturing doesn't just mean building cars and metal-bashing; it includes making pharmaceuticals and hi-tech electronics. A crucial part of the process is the research and development that allows better and greener products to come to market. Britain has traditionally had a strong science and engineering base. -- Martin Rees
  • What is innovation if not our ticket to every business interest in the world? Its the ticket to solving the worlds problems - the energy problems, the pollution problems, the global warming problems. If it isnt for science and engineering, how will we compete in the new world? -- David Pogue
  • What is innovation if not our ticket to every business interest in the world? It's the ticket to solving the world's problems - the energy problems, the pollution problems, the global warming problems. If it isn't for science and engineering, how will we compete in the new world? -- David Pogue
  • My dad grew up in a mud hut and studied by candlelight. He was 14 when he got a scholarship to Russia. He was super clever - the cleverest person. He landed in 5ft of snow, and was alone at 14, studying science and engineering. He didn't have a bed, and he slept on a table. -- M.I.A.
  • For the future, primarily, we must educate people in science, engineering, technology and math. -- Buzz Aldrin
  • In science, technology, engineering and mathematics, men far outnumber women in the classroom and the boardroom. -- Weili Dai
  • Leonardo Da Vinci combined art and science and aesthetics and engineering, that kind of unity is needed once again. -- Ben Shneiderman
  • I received my undergraduate degree in engineering in 1939 and a Master of Science degree in mathematical physics in 1941 at Steven Institute of Technology. -- Frederick Reines
  • Today, over half of China's undergraduate degrees are in math, science technology and engineering, yet only 16 percent of America's undergraduates pursue these schools. -- Cathy McMorris Rodgers
  • All the traditional STEM fields, the science, technology, engineering, and math fields, are stoked when you dream big in an agency such as NASA. -- Neil deGrasse Tyson
  • I think people are realizing that engineering and science are extremely good degrees to get and you'll be very highly paid once you've got them. -- James Dyson
  • Transhumanism is the ethics and science of using things like biological and genetic engineering to transform our bodies and make us a more powerful species. -- Dan Brown
  • This is a global fight to get the right people in the right place and we're talking about people with PhDs in engineering, computer science, mathematics. -- Jerry Moran
  • But while doing that I'd been following a variety of fields in science and technology, including the work in molecular biology, genetic engineering, and so forth. -- K. Eric Drexler
  • No matter what engineering field you're in, you learn the same basic science and mathematics. And then maybe you learn a little bit about how to apply it. -- Noam Chomsky
  • In life sciences, we find a reasonable balance between men and women. In engineering and computer science, we have a major problem. A very small percentage of women will be in computer science. -- Freeman A. Hrabowski III
  • I hated science in high school. Technology? Engineering? Math? Why would I ever need this? Little did I realize that music was also about science, technology, engineering and mathematics, all rolled into one. -- Mickey Hart
  • Now the main areas of higher education that still enjoy considerable financial support from government are subjects like engineering and science and the research ringfence which is the basic minimum to protect Britain's scientific competitiveness. -- Vince Cable
  • I'm not into politics but I am committed to a cause: ensuring design technology and engineering stays on the U.K. curriculum, alongside science and maths - grounding abstract theory, merging the practical with the academic. -- James Dyson
  • Millions of people were inspired by the Apollo Program. I was five years old when I watched Apollo 11 unfold on television, and without any doubt it was a big contributor to my passions for science, engineering, and exploration. -- Jeff Bezos
  • I've actually started a number of businesses in my career. So I'm 28 currently, but when I was about 16, I started building Websites, and that's how I put myself through school.
