- Computer technology: This involves developing systems for data storage such as USB sticks, networking devices such as smart phones and even social media platforms. It is closely linked with Information Technology as it makes processing complex information from one computer to another very easy and accessible. Developments in this field are what help manufacture the latest offerings in digital music storage or even what information is available through the television screen at home.
- Biotechnology: This strand of technology covers areas such as genetic engineering. This looks at areas of life such as living organisms and develops methods and procedures to study them. It may look at ways of cloning and will be closely linked to the latest scientific breakthroughs.
