Abstract
We must live in this universe and carry out many activities to support our lives. Science is the knowledge that illuminates the way, guides to the correct path and relieves the stress of worldly duties from the person who owns it. Technology is the innovation, change, or modification of the natural environment in order to satisfy perceived human wants and needs. Science needs technology in applying the rules and procedures and technology uses the science for its development and improvements. Society is affected greatly by both science and technology. Education is the way of developing the mind in order to gain knowledge, reasoning power and skills, and to reflect them to the attitudes and behaviors. Ethics is the system of moral values; the principle of right or good conducts and it must be an integral part of the education.
