Science is a study of systematically arranged facts that can be logically interpreted by natural, social and methodological sciences ... While engineering is a branch of science that deals with discipline to gain and use scientific, mathematical, economic, and practical knowledge to design and produce machines and devices....
Greeting
In simplest words: Science aims to know; engineering aims to do.
Technology is the practical application of science.
Scientists observe the world, while engineers focus on creating.
Engineering is applied science or the utilization of science to solve specific problems.
Science is the study of the physical world, while engineering is creating new tools, devices, and processes based on scientific knowledge.

Engineering is a part lesson of science & we are aware that students who are appearing for the engineering course they have to study their schooling as a science as main subject . With this science is very vast area creating the knowledge & research environment for the nature ,Earthly products metal , our planetary areas for which the movement of the space & also with the earthly environment whereby Science can totally make the universal with their scientific & research group for their creative invention make the humanity to offer their life in a comfortable & convenient manner .
This is my personal opinion
There are as many engineers involved in research and development as there are scientists involved in application and optimization. In my opinion the main difference is the old Artistic/cerebral dichotomy. Scientists usually go for more philosophical subjects. Whereas Engineers usually go for more mathematical subjects.
Universities use these names for their departments or schools. The theoretical examination of problems is science (mathematics, physics, chemistry, etc.,) and the applied science is engineering. However, scientists may act as engineers and engineers may be excellent scientists. In the rank of a doctorate there is no differentiation. You have to do everything.

I think that the engineering is part of the science, which is dedicated more to the practical part, and that is another thing
Science is the mother for all applications in all engineering majors.
All engineer disciplines can be considered as applied sciences. A pure science includes more theoretical topics than applications. On the other hand, engineers use the tools of science to apply their projects in real life.
Science and engineering is a typical harmony and integration toward a better life.
Best regards
Engineering science is the intersection of engineering (profession/practice) and science (research method/theory); exponential manufacturing and meta-technology are parts of this emerging engineering science, i.e. the technical fusion of science and practice.
I think, modern engineering based on up-to-dated studies. But, of course engineering without science is only art.
Science to be read and understood, e.g: Higgs Boson
Engg is to make/build things to work e.g: LHC (Collider)
Science is the study of the natural world as it is; engineering is creating new tools, processes based on scientific knowledge.
I think, Engineering is one of the science branch, while science is a common approach.
Science is an umbrella under which there are many branches either pure or applied. Indeed, engineering is one of applied sciences.
Simply speaking, Engineering is the application of more than one science.
Science in general refers to a branch of knowledge "dealing with a body of facts or truths gained through observation and experimentation." Engineering is the action, work, or profession of an engineer or the process of application of science (or art) in a specific area (e.g. in the construction of engines, bridges, buildings, mines, ships, and chemical plants.
Science is study of principles where as engineering is application of those principles for effective life of human worthy
'Science' is 'Theory' with assumptions & 'Technology' is application of 'Science' for betterment of people at large
In my opinion, the inherent nature of SCIENCE is inquiry and the crux of ENGINEERING is design.
The difference between science and engineering ... Science is the study of the natural world as it is; geometry creates tools, and new processes are based on scientific knowledge
An engineer is more on the physical aspect of matter (or materials) while a scientist is more on the functionality & "concepts" related to the matter (or material). However, both works on same scientific concepts of matter or material in the field of Science and Technology.

Science and engineering are two sides of a single coin. If science is knowledge in all its details, then engineering is its application.
Science studies the "laws of nature" that is how it is made the universe and how the universe works (nature). What it is the universe? I do not know. But by universe, commonly, we mean: everything that is in the middle between a "quark" and a set of galaxies; that is, everything that is between the infinitely small and the infinitely large; including psychology, literature, poetry, etc., and everything that exists. Engineering uses "the laws of nature" for the benefit of man and the environment in which he lives (sensu lato). The boundary between researcher (scientist) and engineer is very fleeting. Often the researcher works as an engineer and the engineer works as a researcher.
In a nutshell: Science investigates what exist, engineering creates what never existed.
While there are some intersections between engineering and science, engineering is not applied science (this has been covered in the philosophy of technology for the past 30 years or so).
Some of the differences and relations between the two are:
1) The scientist discovers while the engineer designs new artifacts and processes
2) The scientist tries to discover the underlying principles of nature. the engineer in turn might use these principles but it is not necessary for him to do so (some designs are even trial and error).
3) The engineers work can be to implement the design (but is not required to). Implementation can be delegated and the actual acquisition of the product by the client is the role of the entrepreneur(though an engineer can be one)
4) Science depends on engineering to develop the technology for science(though some physicists and chemist carry this work they are doing engineering at this point not science).
Just to add some context to my response
The question of whether technology (a thing that engineers do) can be traced to the history of science when at the more or less middle of the 20th century technology began to blur with science (see [1]). One f the main supporters for this thesis was Bunge[2]. If you want to see the response against technology and engineering as applied science see [3] and [4] respectively. In those last two references they cover some of the points I expressed in my last post.

Scientists look for how the things work in nature and engineers try to solve a practical problem.
I am a researcher, my son is an engineer. once we were talking on this topic and his summary was: Mum, we are to solve the problems NOT for making the problems :)
Science is the study of the physical world, while Engineering applies scientific knowledge to design processes, structures or equipment.
I think there is stronge relation beteen science and engineering ,sincec the engineerer always need sicenist
Engineering is the practical application of scientific principles in order to create a useful product that would sell or benefit humanity somehow.
