The grantee will conduct three workshops to examine data needs and criteria for identification of scientific personnel in three principal areas: the physical sciences, including mathematics and computer sciences; the life sciences; and the social and behavioral sciences. These workshops will lay the groundwork for the survey data collecting activities on scientific personnel during the decade of the 1990's by the National Science Foundation. The workshops, comprised of representatives from the professional societies, industry, academe and government, are essential to identifying important data issues and requirements for the inclusion of personnel in existing as well as newly-emerging scientific fields. Information on the Nation's scientists and engineers (S/E's) is developed by the National Science Foundation through its Scientific and Technical Personnel Data System (STPDS). This System provides numbers as well as demographic, educational, employment, and geographic characteristics of U.S. scientists and engineers. These data are collected by three major NSF biennial surveys: the Survey of Doctorate Recipients; the National Survey of Natural and Social Scientists and Engineers; and the Survey of Recent Science and Engineering Graduates.

受赠方将举办三个讲习班，审查数据需求和三个主要领域科学人员的鉴定标准：包括数学和计算机科学在内的自然科学;生命科学;社会和行为科学。这些讲习班将为国家科学基金会在1990年代的十年中收集科学人员调查数据的活动奠定基础。这些讲习班由专业协会、工业界、企业和政府的代表组成，对于确定重要的数据问题和要求，以便将人员纳入现有和新兴的科学领域至关重要。关于国家科学家和工程师（S/E's）的信息由国家科学基金会通过其科学和技术人员数据系统（STPDS）开发。该系统提供美国科学家和工程师的人数以及人口统计，教育，就业和地理特征。这些数据是由三个主要的NSF两年一度的调查收集：博士学位获得者的调查;自然和社会科学家和工程师的全国调查;和最近的科学和工程毕业生的调查。
