The 21st Century will confront many challenges, arising from resources scarcity, climate change, natural disasters, emerging diseases, terrorism and other yet to be recognized causes. These challenges are global and do not respect political boundaries. Wealthy nations cannot avoid the impacts of climate change or disease epidemics or other resources stresses that may have sources elsewhere in the world. International cooperation aimed at mitigating these challenges is thus in the self interest of all nations. Moreover, implementing effective solutions to these global challenges require local science capabilities and awareness among  people in every country so that local decision makers can access and utilize knowledge resources.
Youths can play leading role in the field of science and technology. The proper use of science and technology is needed for realizing a more equitable prosperous and sustainable world for all. Science has brought many benefits to the humanity while some ... [more]

Since we are living in a science and technology world, many students have opted to take courses related to science and technology. They are thereby required to write science papers during their course of study. Writing science papers can be burdening since the students are required to write following the technological changes in the world. Usually, these students are given a limited period of time to complete their science papers and owing to the fact that they have other things to do and are not as well professional writers, they end up writing poor quality papers. Therefore students need help in writing their science papers. Among the different types of science papers that students write are science term paper, science thesis, science research paper, science dissertation, and science essay.
A good and quality science paper includes an introduction, the body of the paper in which the ideas should be well organized and presented in a systematic manner and a conclusive conclusion.... [more]

Without proper investment in the engineering, science, technology and mathematics education, the United States could lose its "worldwide dominance" in those areas.
In order to maintain its technological and scientific supremacy, the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine recently recommended that the U.S. double its number of graduates in these areas, specifically minority graduates.
Minority groups such as Hispanics, African Americans and Native Americans represented only 9% of employees in science, engineering and related careers in 2006. For the United States to continue to have a leading role in these fields, say the National Academy of Sciences, the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of Medicine, schools must invest heavily in these minority groups.
For the underrepresented minority graduation rate to double, "an annual investment of $150 million in higher education is needed, eventually gro... [more]
