In the field of technology, a Bachelor of Technology is an undergraduate academic degree awarded following successful completion of a three-year, a four-year, or a five-year programme of study at a recognised university or university-level institution.

There are several consequences of technology. More modern economies (particularly today's global economy) have benefited from it, and the growth of a leisure class has been facilitated as a result. The environmental impact of many technological processes is detrimental to the environment because they create undesirable by-products known as pollution and deplete natural resources. The ideals of a society have always been impacted by technological advancements, which have brought new ethical problems about the use of technological innovation. Exemplifying this trend include the increasing importance placed on efficiency in terms of human production, as well as the difficulties associated with bioethical issues.

Over the usage of technology, philosophical arguments have erupted, with differing opinions on whether technology enhances or worsens the human condition. People who support ideologies such as transhumanism and techno-progressivism believe that continued technological progress is beneficial to society and the human condition. Neo-Luddism, anarcho-primitivism, and other reactionary movements criticise the pervasiveness of technology, claiming that it harms the environment and alienates people.
