<p>The difference between science and engineering is that scientists study how things are and act, while engineers solve design problems. Of course, scientists use the things that engineers design (computers, telescopes, particle colliders, etc.) and engineers use the principles discovered by scientists to come up with designs that work.</p>
<p>Which would you prefer to do in school and as a career? (But note that many science graduates end up in jobs and careers that are not really science – e.g. math and physics graduates going into finance.)</p>
