[Music]
many of us had our first exposure to
Science and Technology when we were kids
of course we did not know them then
because our first experiences often
involved not real gadgets but
toys true Mommy I feel so sick
[Music]
playing with these toys we imagined that
we were doctors who could cure and
diagnose
illnesses or perhaps even scientists who
could create robots and make them do
things people could do and things people
couldn't do and many other things
[Music]
but even at an early age we had an
understanding of what Science and
Technology can do and how we can use
this and harness it to our advantage
some of us went beyond Child's Play and
let our imagination guide us to new
discoveries we owe a lot to these people
for making the world a better place to
live in people who have a passion for
Science and Technology render a great
service to
society they continuously seek answers
to big and small problems that confront
[Music]
humankind so I just found it so
amazing Engineers are problem solvers
and we will solve problems to help
Society
[Music]
we created the soulle system to secure
our online accounts by simply
transforming an ordinary flash drive
into a physical password you simply just
have to mount your USB flash drive type
in your password and select the image
file stored inside that USB flash drive
in order to register so all you need to
do now is log in securely to your online
app
[Music]
nothing
[Music]
going nowadays when you talk about Hol H
what you mean is a digital hologram so
instead of using
film uh we use a digital camera such as
this one so in this camera the data is
directly recorded by a sensor and then
that is processed in the computer
[Music]
[Music]
leap learning of playing is a project
that aims to put fun into learning this
is done by developing educational games
based on the gr six science curriculum
of the Department of Education these
games are going to be used as tools by
gratic science students to help them
learn their lesson
[Music]
skyscrapers structure in the near future
[Music]
[Music]
we develop trace it trace it is
basically a computer game that helps
students with special needs learn how to
write and another program has loaded you
can use your right hand to pick a letter
of your and I trace this as how I would
write it on paper
yes yes
[Music]
College
geology
inter it really feels like you're doing
deep science you're learning things the
sense of Discovery is incredible
[Music]
we have lots of collaborators which show
that actually snails have venomous ducks
and this venomous STS they use to hunt
the fish or their grain such as poly
worms believe that these aray or uh of
drugs or peptides can be useful for such
uh neural problems like um intractable
pain not just the normal pain and also
for epilepsy and
[Music]
hyperactivity we need more of our young
people to pursue careers in science and
technology this will enable our country
to produce more scientists and engineers
will undertake research and development
designed to address critical problems
parttime such as energy shortage climate
change and expensive Health
Care scientists and Engineers are also
in a position to produce new products
and processes that will help our
Industries become more globally
competitive join the ranks of our
scientists and engineers and have buil a
stronger base on which the next
Generations can pursue the research and
development initiatives let's move our
country forward up Delan is a secular
University uh and it Prides itself with
uh training its students how to be
critical
thinkers critical thinking is the same
same as scientific thinking so we train
our students how to look at problems in
a manner that uh will break it down to
its components and to propose hypothesis
to explain the the causes of the
problems and to test this
hypothesis through experimental
validation let us move our country
forward you have great opportunities for
research and creative work in science
and technology in arts and
humanities let's apply your inventions
and Creations let's move our country
forward science and technology is about
people because people provide the ideas
and people pursue the ideas ideas that
transform into inventions and
innovations that make our lives better
Science and Technology can only be of
service to society if there are enough
people willing to pursue these ideas to
their realization you can help move our
country forward
