Much of the background work of the National Science Board is done through
its committees. By statute, the Board has an Executive
Committee (EC), which exercises such functions as are delegated to
it by the Board, and such other committees as the Board deems necessary.
The Board has three standing committees and establishes other task forces
and committees as needed for specific assignments:
STANDING COMMITTEES
Audit and Oversight (A&O),
Education and Human Resources (EHR),
and
EHR Subcommittee on Science and Engineering Indicators
EHR Task Force on National Workforce
Policies for S&E;
Programs and Plans (CPP)
CPP Task Force on Polar Issues
CPP Task Force on S&E; Infrastructure
Committee on Strategy and Budget
OTHER CURRENT COMMITTEES
Committee on Strategic Science and Engineering
Policy Issues
Task Force on International Issues in Science
and Engineering (TFISE)
Task Force on NSB's 50th Anniversary
COMMITTEE ARCHIVES
Committee on Communication and Outreach (CCO)
CPP Task Force on the Environment (TFE)
The NSB Chairman, Vice Chairman and Director, NSF, are ex officio members
of all Board committees. Committee chairmen are ex officio members of
any subcommittee of the parent committee.
