RELATED ACTIVITIES

For necessary expenses in carrying out the National Science Foundation Act of 1950, as amended (42 U.S.C. 1861–1875), and the Act
to establish a National Medal of Science (42 U.S.C. 1880–1881); services as authorized by 5 U.S.C. 3109; authorized travel; maintenance
and operation of aircraft and purchase of flight services for research
support; acquisition of aircraft; ø$2,966,000,000¿ $3,540,680,000, of
which not to exceed ø$253,000,000¿ $285,410,000 shall remain available until expended for Polar research and operations support, and
for reimbursement to other Federal agencies for operational and
science support and logistical and other related activities for the
United States Antarctic program; the balance to remain available
until September 30, ø2001¿ 2002: Provided, That receipts for scientific support services and materials furnished by the National Research Centers and other National Science Foundation supported research facilities may be credited to this appropriation: Provided further, That to the extent that the amount appropriated is less than
the total amount authorized to be appropriated for included program
activities, all amounts, including floors and ceilings, specified in the
authorizing Act for those program activities or their subactivities
shall be reduced proportionallyø: Provided further, That $60,000,000
of the funds available under this heading shall be made available
for a comprehensive research initiative on plant genomes for economically significant crop: Provided further, That none of the funds appropriated or otherwise made available to the National Science Foundation in this or any prior Act may be obligated or expended by the
National Science Foundation to enter into or extend a grant, contract,
or cooperative agreement for the support of administering the domain
name and numbering system of the Internet after September 30,
1998: Provided further, That no funds in this or any other Act shall
be used to acquire or lease a research vessel with ice-breaking capability built or retrofitted by a shipyard located in a foreign country
if such a vessel of United States origin can be obtained at a cost
no more than 50 per centum above that of the least expensive technically acceptable foreign vessel bid: Provided further, That, in determining the cost of such a vessel, such cost be increased by the
amount of any subsidies or financing provided by a foreign government (or instrumentality thereof ) to such vessel’s construction: Provided further, That if the vessel contracted for pursuant to the foregoing is not available for the 2002–2003 austral summer Antarctic
season, a vessel of any origin may be leased for a period of not

The research and related activities appropriation enables
the United States to uphold world leadership in all aspects
of science and engineering. This appropriation provides resources for NSF to achieve the following outcome goals: discoveries at and across the frontier of science and engineering,
and connections to its use in the service of society; a diverse,
internationally competitive and globally-engaged workforce of
scientists, engineers and well-prepared citizens; and broadly
accessible, state-of-the-art information bases and shared research and education tools. Research activities will contribute
to the achievement of these goals through development of
intellectual capital, integration of research and education, and

promotion of partnerships. This appropriation supports NSF’s
active development of performance indicators.
Program activities in the research and related activities
appropriation are included in the 21st Century research fund.
The major research program activities of the Foundation
are:
Biological sciences.—This activity promotes scientific
progress in biology through support of research ranging from
the study of molecules, through cells and organisms, to studies of ecosystems. This activity also supports a comprehensive
research initiative on plant genomes, including research on
economically significant crops.
Computer and information sciences and engineering.—Research is directed at ‘‘information technology’’ in the broadest
sense of the term, ranging from fundamental theory to systems engineering.
Engineering.—Research supported by this activity aims to
increase U.S. engineering capability and strength, and focus
that capability and strength on areas which are relevant to
national problems and long-term needs. This activity also includes small business innovation research.
Geosciences.—This research advances knowledge of the
properties and dynamics of the planet Earth.
Mathematical and physical sciences.—Research in this activity is directed at increasing understanding of natural laws
and phenomena. It includes research in mathematical
sciences, astronomy, physics, chemistry, and materials
science.
Social, behavioral and economic sciences.—This activity
supports research in social, behavioral and economic sciences,
facilitates international scientific cooperation, and funds
science resources studies.
U.S. polar research programs.—This activity supports Arctic
and Antarctic research and operational science support and
other related activities for the United States polar research
programs. This activity includes funding for the expenses of
the Arctic Research Commission.
U.S. Antarctic logistical support activities.—This activity
provides funding for reimbursing Federal agencies for
logistical and other related activities for the United States
Antarctic program.
Integrative activities.—This activity supports emerging
cross-disciplinary research efforts and major research instrumentation. This activity also provides support for the Science
and Technology Policy Institute.

Education and human resources (EHR) activities provide
a comprehensive set of programs that further NSF’s goal of
ensuring a diverse, internationally competitive and globallyengaged workforce of scientists, engineers and well-prepared
citizens. At the pre-kindergarten through grade 12 (pre K–
12) level, EHR catalyzes systemic reform of science, mathematics, engineering and technology (SMET) education in
States, cities, school districts, and rural areas. Its pre K–
12 programs provide new instructional materials and pedagogical techniques that incorporate the latest advances in
teaching, learning, and educational technologies. They also
provide enrichment activities for teachers and students. Undergraduate initiatives improve curricula in all SMET fields
and lead reform efforts in mathematics, chemistry, and other
disciplines. EHR programs strengthen laboratory course offerings and enhance faculty. Programs for advanced technological education strengthen education for students preparing
to enter the high-technology workforce. Graduate level support is directed primarily to research and education fellowships and traineeships to guarantee the U.S. world leadership
in science and technology. All EHR programming focuses on
broadening participation of groups underrepresented in SMET
fields including activities focused on the improvement of infrastructure and academic programs at minority-serving institutions. The Office of Innovation Partnerships was initiated in
FY 2000 to examine means of helping institutions expand
their research capacity and competitiveness so as to develop
a truly national scientific research community. Included is
the Experimental program to stimulate competitive research
(EPSCoR) that broadens participation of States and regions
in science and engineering. EHR supports research that advances SMET education, as well as development and effective
implementation of learning technologies. Evaluation and communications activities ensure accountability by developing indicators that measure program impact and inform the education community of best practices and relevant information.
Also included within EHR are funds resulting from the collection and use of H–1B non-immigrant fees, for scholarships,
enrichment courses, and systemic reform activities. This appropriation also supports NSF’s active development of performance indicators.
Education and human resources programs are included in
the 21st Century research fund.
