Man was letting nomadic life for a million years and then changed to settle farming about five thousand years ago along river banks which are called as beginning of civilization. However industrial revolution let by Britain started in eighteenth century.
Industrial revolution is simply mass production with the use of machines. Productions were beyond the out put of normal man. Science knowledge accelerated at accelerating scale. This revolution, not only widen the gap between the rich and the poor but also the knowledge level among communities.
During these new fields of studies like engineering, aeronautical science, automobile engineering emerged.
After the industrial revolution, the computer technology, emerge where storing of information, processing of information and retrieval of information was made easy. Digital technology made calculations more accurate.
At one time, universities only offered computer science, now offering courses on computer of various types like computer hard ware engineering, soft ware development, multi media, graphic etc.
Nanotechnology, robotics science, artificial intelligence, genetics, space technology and medical sciences are still the unexplored fields. They will be the technologies of the future.
Our fore fathers had either missed the industrialization or acquired the knowledge late as with westerners. We should not do the same mistake. Who ever first to acquire a technology the will earn an economic rent until others learn the technology. Why not we to be the first?
Do anyone want our future generation to blame us as what we blame our pass generation for missing industrialization or future historians to blame the present generation for the failure of the future generation.
We should encourage present students to take up sciences of the future. We should be the first to learn any technologies in the region and earn an economic rent.
