Empowerment of Aesthetic Education from the Cases of Great Scientists

In the current university education system, do undergraduates in science and technology (science, agriculture, medicine, etc.) need aesthetic education? The further question is: does the aesthetic enhancement contribute to their scientific research? This article takes the cases of some great scientists as the analysis object, and demonstrates the necessity and importance of aesthetic education through the research and words of these scientists. In many examples of scientific discoveries by the great scientists, there are complex aesthetic empowerment effects. The aesthetic empowerment is strongly substantiated by three levels of analysis: scientists’ “love of beauty”, the logic of “beauty as truth” in scientific research, and aesthetic expression of the scientific dissemination.
