Please provide your comments for the below essay. what do you think ??

In today's world , science is the basic foundation for a lot of progress and development happening in our society. Science plays a major role in our society by extending human knowledge of his environment, his society and himself. Science provides a way of understanding things around us and things beyond our physical comprehension in a conclusive manner. Hence I believe that Basic science courses provides a platform for understanding things we are interested in irrespective of the field of study.

To begin with basic science courses teach people about how things around us work. For example things like how a tv work, how a water flows through a piplelines to far distance, how a car move , how it rains or why we breathe. This things are very essential for today student irrespective of whether they are science stream or non-science stream.

Furthermore, science teaches people to think systematically about things around them. For example think of a artist trying to draw an human. it will be easy for him to draw something in nature if he understands the rule of proportion. He can draw anything in nature perfectly if he understands that even nature works in a systematic way based on a scientific pattern. If a artist understands this he can draw things even without seeing them. Even things like painting have some kind of science involved. The mixing of paint with liquid not only as per the colour, but also as per the material used in the paint and how certain liquids can dry faster, or slower based on the amount of moist in the air. This involves some kind of science which though can be picked up by the experience through the years, but cannot provide the artist with conclusive knowledge so that he can take into acount this aspects next time around.

Finally, Science courses provides student with knowledge of how observation, measurement and analysis of results based method of approach can solve many problem irrespective of the field of study.Every field of study at some point needs to used systematic approach and conclusive study of things.

To sum up, Science is important part of human study which help people understand the things happening around us and also that it gives insight into why and what makes it happen, it gives student the foundation for being more systematic and conclusive way of studying their respective field. Hence basic science course will help students in any filed of study to be aware of things and apply this knowledge to their field of study.

Basic science courses are neccessary to take no matter what field they study.

In such an Epoch(,) with numerous versatile talents and advanced technology(,) some people maintain the idea that university students should spend all their time on their own study subject (,)as the time at college is limited and they should devote one hundred percent concentration on their major in order to achieve excellent academic performances. Countray CONTRARY to this opinion is my heartfelt position that college students should obtain overall basic science knowledge because they can benefit a lot MUCH MORE.

The first reason that encourages me to hold this statement is that the accumulation of scientific knowledge helps students improve their academic studies. Few people dispute the idea that everything in the universe has a connection. In the same way, A SIMILAR connection exists between college subjects. If someone asks me to offer an example, I cannot think of a better one than mathematics and physics. It is universally acknowledged that many mathematic branches, such as geometry, algebra and formulas, play a key role in the proccess PROCESS of THE development of physics as an indispensable instrument. In other words, students majorING in physics ought to take mathematic classes IN ORDER to increase their academic level.

Secondly, by taking classes in basic science, students can master far more knowledge and skills, which can make them more versatile and adaptive thus reducING their career risks. Let's consider the following hypothetical situation, suppose IMAGINE THAT two college graduates are applying FOR one position as a department manager at General Electric(.) LET US THEN assume THAT both of them majored in business management at college(.) One of them takes purely art courses while another one THE OTHER took several optional classes in engineerING. At the interview, the latter one proposed his plan of how to operate the engineer management system for the sake of PRODUCING THE greatest profit. The result is obvious to show IN DEMONSTRATING the importance to take OF ATTENDING basic science classes.

Taking basic science courses provides students WITH opportunities to meet people with different backgrounds and personalities, and TO greatly widen their circle OF ACQUAINTANCES. It is well known that alumni can be a great help in a person's career. Several famous cases can provide us some insight. Bill Gates met his great friend Paul Allen while taking Algebra classes, and Paul helped Bill found Microsoft Company. Likewise, Steven Jobs associated a smart guy named Woznaik while taking Statistic classes at Stanford University and eventually they formed Apple Computer Company.

In the light of the reasons stated above, it is safe to say that STUDYING basic science is essential for students' FUTURE enterpriseS (,) and the significance of THIS can never be ignored.
