Committee on Equal Opportunities in Science and Engineering (CEOSE): BiennialReport to the United States Congress

摘要

The Committee on Equal Opportunities in Science and Engineering (CEOSE) ischarged with advising the National Science Foundation (NSF) on policies and activities to encourage full participation by women, minorities, and persons with disabilities in science, mathematics, engineering, and technology. The membership of this committee consists of representatives from the Advisory Committees of each NSF Directorate, as well as several at-large members. CEOSE envisions a nation in which every segment of the population is empowered and enabled to participate fully in the science, mathematics, engineering, and technology (SMET) enterprise. CEOSE will advise and guide NSF to ensure the fulfillment of this vision by promoting a SMET advancement and dissemination paradigm that is inclusive of all citizens, regardless of gender, ethnicity, or disability status.
