In this discussion I would like us to examine the way in which individuals with professions in the Fields of STEM (science technology engineering mathematics) can find a sense of meaning through contributing to the well-being and vital future of humanity and beyond.
The point of this discussion is to explore the way that scientists, engineers, etc., can be involved in their field not for the money or prestige but for the sake of contributing to the betterment of humanity. Try to think first how one of these fields can be seen as contributing to mankind. Then highlight a particular individual within that field who exemplifies the idea of contributing to humanity through engagement in one of the STEM fields.
So,
1) How do one of the stem fields contribute to the betterment of humanity? Give a general reflection on this but also go into some detail for the sake of getting beyond mere platitudes or common place reflections.
2) Who is a member of the STEM Fields who clearly demonstrates the way that one’s career or profession in the STEM disciplines can be a vehicle for a personal sense of meaning through making a contribution to the betterment of mankind? Who is this person and how have they demonstrated this?
PLEASE BE THOUGHTFUL I NEED TO PASS THIS PHILOSOPHY CLASS!! <3
