Science & Technology Policy Leadership Seminar

The AAAS Leadership Seminar in Science and Technology Policy is a "crash course" in science and technology (S&T) policy, designed for those who need to know how S&T policy works. It is modeled after the highly acclaimed orientation program that AAAS provides for its new S&T Policy Fellows each fall, but distills the key material into 4 days instead of two weeks. Space is limited to only 50 participants ‐ the small group setting provides an ideal opportunity to learn about the challenges and .. continue reading solutions of S&T policy from the experts. Join AAAS to learn firsthand from key people in S&T policy, in an all-new virtual setting. Anyone who needs or wants to know how S&T policy works at both macro and micro levels ‐ scientists and engineers, administrators, and managers in any sector (industry, academia, or government). You will learn how to select points of intervention for maximum impact with policy makers and how to be more effective in interacting with federal decision makers. You will begin to learn how to bridge the cultural gap between S&T and the policy process, and how to foster more effective interaction between the sectors.
