The National Science Foundation (NSF) requests recommendations for membership on its scientific and technical federal advisory committees. Self-recommendations are accepted. Committee members serve varying term lengths. NSF has 13 scientific and technical advisory committees, including:
- Advisory Committee for Computer and Information Science and Engineering
- Advisory Committee for Cyberinfrastructure
- Advisory Committee for Mathematical and Physical Sciences
- Committee on Equal Opportunities in Science and Engineering
- Advisory Committee for Education and Human Resources
- Advisory Committee for International Science and Engineering
Committees meet twice per year and provide advice on the impact of NSF policies, programs, and activities. Members also contribute expert advice on current and emergent issues in their respective scientific and technical disciplines and fields.
