The American Institute of Chemical Engineers ( AIChE ), established in 1908, played a key role in making chemical engineering considered an independent science, and unit operations central to chemical engineering.

For instance, it defined chemical engineering to be a " science of itself, the basis of which is ... unit operations " in a 1922 report ; and with which principle, it had published a list of academic institutions which offered " satisfactory " chemical engineering courses.

Operations research, sometimes known as " management science " ( but distinct from Taylor's scientific management ), attempts to take a scientific approach to solving management problems, particularly in the areas of logistics and operations.

Mathematical models are used not only in the natural sciences ( such as physics, biology, earth science, meteorology ) and engineering disciplines ( e. g. computer science, artificial intelligence ), but also in the social sciences ( such as economics, psychology, sociology and political science ); physicists, engineers, statisticians, operations research analysts and economists use mathematical models most extensively.

In computer science, a queue ( ) is a particular kind of abstract data type or collection in which the entities in the collection are kept in order and the principal ( or only ) operations on the collection are the addition of entities to the rear terminal position and removal of entities from the front terminal position.

Queues provide services in computer science, transport, and operations research where various entities such as data, objects, persons, or events are stored and held to be processed later.

Being part of the University, LASP has heavy student involvement in every aspect of its operations, including science, hardware design / construction and mission operations.

In electronics, computer science and mathematics, a digital filter is a system that performs mathematical operations on a sampled, discrete-time signal to reduce or enhance certain aspects of that signal.

This approach emphasizes quantitative methods, in particular operations research, management information systems, statistics, organizational behavior, modeling and simulation, and decision science.

Because of its emphasis on human-technology interaction and because of its focus on practical applications, operations research has overlap with other disciplines, notably industrial engineering and operations management, and draws on psychology and organization science.

Typical specializations include: accounting, economics, entrepreneurship, finance, international business, management science, marketing, operations management, organizational behavior, project management, real estate, and strategy, among others.

These Research & Development organizations support NASA's Exploration efforts, as well as the continued operations of the Space Shuttle and International Space Station, and the space science and Aeronautics work across NASA.

Mankind, as a result, attains previously undreamed of levels of civilization and culture, a golden age which the Overlords, a very evident symbol of science, have helped produce by introducing reason and the scientific method into human activities.

Behavior as used in computer science is an anthropomorphic construct that assigns " life " to the activities carried out by a computer, computer application, or computer code in response to stimuli, such as user input.

In 1917 Columbia established the Lincoln School of Teachers College “ as a laboratory for the working out of an elementary and secondary curriculum which shall eliminate obsolete material and endeavor to work up in usable form material adapted to the needs of modern living .” ( Cremin, 282 ) Based on Flexner ’ s demand that the modern curriculum “ include nothing for which an affirmative case can not be made out ” ( Cremin, 281 ) the new school organized its activities around four fundamental fields: science, industry, aesthetics and civics.

However, today many schools use progressive education methods, such as hands on activities and science experiments in Junior High Schools.

There is still much overlap in fannish culture and activities between media fandom and its science fiction fandom parent ; media fandom derives some of its jargon, customs and practices from its science fandom roots.

At the time the Futurians were formed, Donald Wollheim was strongly attracted by communism and believed that followers of science fiction " should actively work for the realization of the scientific world-state as the only genuine justification for their activities and existence ".

The historicist position by Hegel suggests that any human society and all human activities such as science, art, or philosophy, are defined by their history, so that their essence can be sought only through understanding that.

To acknowledge outstanding research contributions to mathematics, through the awarding of scientific prizes and to encourage and support other international mathematical activities, considered likely to contribute to the development of mathematical science in any of its aspects, whether pure, applied, or educational.

Theories more favorable to corporate activities may be praised using the term " sound science ".

Applied philosophy is the philosophical critique of various social activities ( such as religion ) and intellectual pursuits ( such as science and sociology ).

* Intellectual, academic, or technical hobbies, activities, and pursuits, especially topics related to science, mathematics and technology.

* Hobbies, games, and activities that are described as obsessive and " immature ", such as trading cards, comic books, television programs, films, role-playing games and other things relating to fantasy and science fiction.

SF societies, referred to as " clubs " except in formal contexts, form a year-round base of activities for science fiction fans.

Science fiction societies, more commonly referred to as " clubs " except on the most formal of occasions, form a year-round base of activities for science fiction fans.

Participation in science fiction fandom often overlaps with other similar interests, such as fantasy role-playing games, comic books and anime, and in the broadest sense fans of these activities are felt to be part of the greater community of SF fandom.

Many human activities depend upon the concept, which is assumed rather than a subject of discussion, including science, law, and everyday life.

The U. S. does not primarily use SI units in its commercial activities, although they are standard in science, medicine, and government ( including the U. S. Armed Forces ), as well as many sectors of industry.

As Chairman of the National Defense Research Committee ( NDRC ), and later Director of the Office of Scientific Research and Development ( OSRD ), Bush coordinated the activities of some six thousand leading American scientists in the application of science to warfare.

The ensuing exploration of the boundaries and nature of NP-complete class of problems has been one of the most active and important research activities in computer science for the last decade.

It is closely associated with such characteristically human activities as philosophy, science, language, mathematics, and art, and is normally considered to be a definitive characteristic of human nature.

His obituary by the Royal Society stated: " Gregory was always very interested in the international contacts of science, and in the columns of Nature he always gave generous space to accounts of the activities of the International Scientific Unions.
