The Federal Coordinating Council for Science, 

 Engineering and Technology 



X he Federal Coordinating Council for Science, Engineering and Tech- 

 nology was established in 1976 to address science and technology 

 policy issues affecting multiple Federal agencies. The Council is an im- 

 portant means for coordinating Federal R&D programs and other multi- 

 agency science and technology activities. It also provides a mechanism 

 for focusing attention on science, engineering and technology policy is- 

 sues within the Federal agencies. 



The Council is chaired by the Director of the Office of Science and 

 Technology Policy and is comprised of Cabinet members or their 

 deputies from the major Federal Departments and the heads of Federal 

 science agencies. In Fiscal Year 1992, these departments and agencies 

 collectively accounted for approximately $74 billion in Federal R&D 

 expenditures. 



The interagency nature of the Council makes it a critical body for 

 the planning, budgeting, and coordination necessary to set government- 

 wide priorities on cross-cutting R&D initiatives and to ensure efficient 

 use of Federal R&D resources. The Council has established seven high- 

 level, interagency standing committees spanning broad areas of science 

 and technology. 



In close cooperation with the Office of Management and Budget, 

 the Council and its committees develop coordinated, integrated 

 strategies, programs, and budgets for Federal research and development 

 in high priority, cross-cutting areas of science and technology. The areas 

 include: global change, high performance computing and communica- 

 tions, biotechnology, advanced materials and processing, and mathe- 

 matics and science education. Interagency groups also are examining 

 topics ranging from coastal ocean science, genome patenting, and 

 natural disaster reduction to the structure of international science and 

 technology agreements. In each case, the goal is to achieve consensus 

 that can then guide the actions of participating agencies.
