2005-10 AAAS/NSF Science and Engineering Fellowship Program

美国科学促进会（AAAS）和美国国家科学基金会（NSF）将继续AAAS/NSF奖学金计划，为博士后和职业中期的科学家和工程师提供深入了解科学、工程和技术决策过程的机会。每年年轻的专业人员将被竞争性地挑选出来，并被安置在NSF的办公室里，从事研究员和主办理事会或办公室共同感兴趣的项目。研究员将了解美国国家科学基金会如何资助科学，同时就与美国国家科学基金会的使命支持基础科学和工程研究与教育有关的问题提供科学、工程和教育方面的投入。研究员将与参与规划、发展和监督所有基础研究领域机构项目的工作人员一起工作。任务可能涉及重要的跨部门、国会或国际活动，以及涉及国家科学委员会（NSF的政策制定机构）。该项目包括一个关于行政部门和国会运作的培训，以及一个为期一年的关于科学、技术和公共政策问题的研讨会项目。

The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) will continue the AAAS/NSF Fellowship Program to provide post-doctoral and mid-career scientists and engineers with insight into the decision-making process in science, engineering and technology. Each year young professional will be selected competitively and placed in offices throughout NSF, working on projects of mutual interest to the Fellows and the host directorate or office. Fellows will learn how NSF funds science, while providing scientific, engineering and educational input on issues relating to NSF's mission support of fundamental science and engineering research and education. Fellows will work with staff involved in planning, development and oversight of agency programs in all fields of fundamental research. Assignments may involve significant interagency, congressional or international activity, as well as involvement with the National Science Board, NSF's policy-setting body. The program includes an orientation on executive branch and congressional operations, as well as a yearlong seminar program on issues involving science, technology and public policy.
