What exactly is "applied" science?

I am helping a student find a college where she can do digital design (which is really what she wants to do) , but at the same time keep her dad happy pursuing a “major where she can get a job”. He wants her to go into engineering, but she hates it. She told me that she likes applied science. Can someone explain what exactly that is? And anyone know of a college with good programs in both?
