Role of Mathematics in Other Spheres //

Last Edited/ Updated on March 5, 2012

Mathematical and technical lines are similar. Just like we have axioms in mathematics, we have basic facts of technology. As we prove the existence of a new mathematical object with the help of axioms, we make design of a new machine (or instrument) with the help of the basic facts of technology. Finally as we find the mathematical object which existence has been proved, we construct the technical object (machine or instrument) which design has been made.

Apart from this fundamental similarity between mathematics and engineering, there have been many applications of mathematics in various streams of engineering. Mechanical engineering is one of the oldest and Computer engineering is one of the latest streams, where mathematics finds maximum use.
