AAAS Science & Technology Policy Fellowships at NSF, 9/1/2013 - 8/31/2016

美国科学促进会(AAAS)和美国国家科学基金会(NSF)将继续合作，通过AAAS科学和技术奖学金计划为职业生涯早期和中期的科学家和工程师提供专业发展和公共服务的机会。每年，研究员都是通过竞争方式挑选出来的，并被安排在整个NSF的办公室里，从事研究员和东道国董事会或办公室共同感兴趣的项目。通过提供对决策过程的洞察，并了解当前影响科学和工程事业的问题，研究员将发现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 its collaboration in providing early and mid-career scientists and engineers with opportunities for professional development and public service via the AAAS Science and Technology Fellowship Program. Annually, Fellows are selected competitively and placed in offices throughout NSF, working on projects of mutual interest to the Fellow and the host directorate or office. By providing insight into the decision-making process, and learning about current issues affecting the scientific and engineering enterprise, Fellows will discover how NSF funds science, while providing scientific, engineering and educational input on issues relating to NSF's mission support of basic 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 matters involving science, technology and public policy.
