nothing, all you need is a complete "bottoms-up" understanding of a field and current research. and if by "pure science" you mean theoretical physics, then yes. most other branches of science require experiment or access to resources.

It will take several years to gain any serous understanding of a field and without a phd in that field you have no idea how to go about research.

Separating science and engineering is pretty pointless.

Engineers use science to do whatever they do. They aren't using magic or happy thoughts.

And research in science takes some engineering at one point or another. You eventually have to use or build some kind of apparatus to aid in whatever you are researching. You can't just shit some math and theories into a notebook and expect anyone to take you seriously if you haven't done anything to prove the shit in your notebook.

>> No.4159217

Science and engineering are roughly as different as different fields of science. Chemistry operates under the rules of physics, and ultimately all science is math, but scientist and mathematician aren't synonymous.

pretty much this.

Engineering is the application of science, and it can even be the active science if one is pioneering something new.

And Science must apply previous science when doing 'new' science.

the only real difference is sequence of activities.

No. Engineers don't actually "invent things." They figure out how to build things, or how to make things work, but the actual inventing is done by scientists, in the form of ideas, concepts, methods, etc. Engineers are just slaves of science. Without scientists, there would be no engineers.

Engineers are the people who apply physics theories to the real world. You know all those rockets,spacecraft and satellites you masturbate over? Engineers designed them, engineers redesigned them after testing the prototypes and engineers chose what the final product will look like.

ISHYGGDT.

Engineers take theories and apply them..this involves desiging and hence 'building' new inventions.
A scientist often works on a micro or macro level with the intentions of discovering something or understanding more about how something works, where as engineers apply these findings to inventions; they then build something that allow for the scientist to continue research.
