This project provides for international technology assessments and related planning workshop support. WTEC and its predecessors have conducted over 60 such technology assessments since 1989. The objectives include seeking technologies to transfer to the U.S., evaluating the position of U.S. science and technology with respect to leading competitors, and seeking opportunities for international cooperation in research. The project provides for four or more additional international studies and reporting of the results, plus one or more workshops in area related to international technology assessments. Results will be disseminated at workshops including copies of visual aids distributed in hardcopy and posted on the Web, final reports from each study tour of academic quality in hardcopy, CD, and Web media, plus at least one synthesis report on cross-cutting findings. A blog on international S&T policy will be published to report progress.

该项目提供国际技术评估和相关的规划研讨会支持。自1989年以来，WTEC及其前身已经进行了60多次这样的技术评估。目标包括寻求将技术转移到美国，评估美国科技相对于领先竞争对手的地位，以及寻找国际研究合作的机会。该项目提供四项或四项以上的额外国际研究和成果报告，以及一项或多项与国际技术评估相关领域的讲习班。结果将在讲习班上传播，包括以硬拷贝形式分发并在网上张贴的可视教具，以硬拷贝、光盘和网络媒体形式每次考察的学术质量的最终报告，以及至少一份关于横向研究结果的综合报告。将发布S与电信国际政策的博客，以报道进展情况。
