things that never were; and I say‚ ‘Why not ?". I was 16 when I first came across this awesome quote by the great G B Shaw. I can say that this was the figment that inculcated my liking towards engineering‚ considering it went hand in glove with my inquisitive attitude. So I pursued Mechanical engineering for my under graduation. But in early stages‚ my performance levels never satisfied me and I often felt that I was not making use of my actual potential. But everything changed in 6th semester in

Abstract Philosophy has not paid sufficient attention to engineering. Nevertheless‚ engineering should not use this as an excuse to ignore philosophy. The argument here is that philosophy is important to engineering for at least three reasons. First‚ philosophy is necessary so that engineers may understand and defend themselves against philosophical criticisms. In fact‚ there is a tradition of engineering philosophy that is largely overlooked‚ even by engineers. Second‚ philosophy‚ especially ethics

Azizjon Azimi Bioethics Long Stance Paper on Human Genetic Engineering The debate on whether human genetic engineering should be researched and used as the main alternative solution to disease have been going on since the creation of the "human genetic engineering" phenomenon. The ethical question is clear: should money be invested in human genetic engineering and should we research it at all‚ even if it is formally criticized by all monotheistic religions? The ethical principles in conflict

meaningful” (Wald 45). These words were spoken by a Nobel Prize winning biologist and Harvard professor‚ George Wald‚ in a lecture given in 1976 on the Dangers of Genetic Engineering. This quotation states that incredible inventions‚ such as genetic engineering‚ are not always beneficial to society. Genetic engineering is “altering the genetic material of cells and/or organisms in order to make them capable of making new substances or performing new functions” (Wald 45). It is also
