I would argue that this is better called "engineering" rather than science. In this sense engineering is a design discipline which applies science-made theories to create technology and tools.
And so engenireeng is not strictly creative (it does not create novel ideas) but refines and pushes the practice (of the theories) to more sophisticated levels.
In any case engineering does create novel technology which then can push science forward by providing better and more dieverse empirical data for science to continue.
