tieteellisteknistä

Tieteellisteknistä is a Finnish adjective used to describe things that combine scientific and technical aspects. It is formed by joining tieteellinen (scientific) and tekninen (technical). The term is used in contexts where both rigorous scientific knowledge and practical technical application are relevant, such as information, methods, or communication.

In Finnish grammar, tieteellistekninen is the base form of the adjective. It inflects to tieteellisteknistä in the partitive singular, which is used with non-countable nouns or with numbers in the partitive, for example tieteellisteknistä tietoa (scientific-technical information) or tieteellisteknistä tutkimusta (scientific-technical research). The form adapts to other cases as with standard Finnish adjectives.

Common contexts for the term include scientific-technical communication, education, research and development in industry, and documentation that requires both scientific validity and engineering practicality. It is often contrasted with purely tieteellinen (scientific) or tekninen (technical) descriptors, to signal an integrated approach.

In translation, tieteellisteknistä corresponds to English phrases such as "scientific-technical" or "science-and-technology," as in tieteellisteknistä viestintää or tieteellisteknistä tietoa. The term is primarily used in Finnish-language texts dealing with applied sciences, technical documentation, and research policy.
