2005-10 AAAS/NSF Science and Engineering Fellowship Program

美国科学促进会(AAAS)和国家科学基金会(NSF)将继续AAAS/NSF奖学金计划，为博士后和职业生涯中期的科学家和工程师提供对科学、工程和技术决策过程的洞察。每年，年轻的专业人员将被竞争性地挑选出来，并被分配到整个NSF的办公室，从事研究员和东道国董事会或办公室共同感兴趣的项目。研究人员将学习NSF如何为科学提供资金，同时就与NSF对基础科学和工程研究和教育的任务支持相关的问题提供科学、工程和教育方面的意见。研究员将与参与规划、开发和监督所有基础研究领域的机构项目的工作人员合作。任务可能涉及重大的跨部门、国会或国际活动，以及参与国家科学委员会(NSF的政策制定机构)。该计划包括对行政部门和国会运作的指导，以及为期一年的涉及科学、技术和公共政策问题的研讨会计划。

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.
