Institution History

Although there was some scientific research in the early days of the founding of the United States, the number of scientific personnel was small and geographically dispersed. The advanced technology at that time mainly came from Europe. In 1848, the American Association for the Promotion of Science was founded, which marked the emergence of a national scientific group in the United States. The predecessor of the Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology was the United States, which was founded in 1840 geologist Association, which was renamed American Geologist and Naturalist Association. The members of this association reached an agreement in 1848 to terminate the activities of the Association of Geologists and Naturalists and establish a new organization, namely the American Association for the Promotion of Science. This is the purpose of the United States to promote science and engineering The first company to develop Permanent Organization, representing various disciplines and categories. Most of the representatives attending the meeting of the Council for the Promotion of Science and Technology are celebrities in the scientific community Meeting report There are also many, sometimes published conference anthologies, which have formed a certain influence in society.

In the 150 years since its establishment, the Council for the Promotion of Science and Technology has witnessed the development of American science.

Many well-known activities of the CCPIT Science and Technology Promotion Association started from some projects in the 1970s. In some foundations and federal government With the support of, CCPIT has launched many pioneering projects, including improving Minorities Participation in and support for science developing country Of scientific progress Explore the relationship between science, morality and law, analyze, evaluate and track federal R&D investment, and help scientists and engineers work in Congress and federal administrative agencies. The Council for the Promotion of Science and Technology is also committed to promoting academic exchange 、 science education as well as Scientific and technological human resources And infrastructure construction, and U.S. government Actively provide Science and technology policy consultation. Historically, many of the US government's science and technology policies have been fully demonstrated and consulted by the Council in advance. Its“ 2061 Plan ”It also undertook the arduous task of reforming science education in the United States from kindergarten to grade 12.

The Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology is an organization open to all the public. It has 262 subordinate societies and 120000 individual and collective members, serving more than 10 million science Home. In addition to organizing the activities of its members, it also publishes the well-known academic journal Science, science bulletin and books, and takes the lead in carrying out some activities aimed at improving the global scale scientific literacy Items for. Its Science magazine is the world's classic Peer review The number of readers of the journal with the largest circulation is estimated to be about 1 million.

Purpose of the organization

The purpose of the Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology is to "promote science and serve society". Specifically, it is to promote the development of science and innovation in a global scale to benefit mankind.

International projects

Organizations and activities under international projects include:

(1) Sustainable development: CCPIT has established a science, innovation and sustainable development center with three goals:

·International scientific cooperation;

· capacity building And the cultivation of scientific research team;

·Promote sustainable development.

(2) International project consortium: This is an extensive and multidisciplinary network of science and engineering associations, and a consortium of such associations that are more active internationally.

(3) Cooperation of women scientists: the international cooperation project of women scientists is between CCPIT and National Science Foundation （ NSF ）The project jointly launched aims to increase the participation of women scientists in international scientific projects. This program encourages women scientists in the United States to cooperate with China, Europe Eastern Europe 、 Western Europe 、 CIS countries 、 Near East 、 Middle East 、 Africa 、 America 、 Asia Work with colleagues from Pacific countries to design new cooperation content, put forward complete project suggestions on this basis, and apply to the National Science Foundation for funding.

Education and human resources

American Association for the Advancement of Science

One of the main ways for AAAS to promote public understanding of science is to promote scientific research in different fields through its publications, especially Science magazine science education 。 This kind of science education not only affects the United States, but also affects the whole world. In addition, hold academic conferences Communication technology The latest development is also a very important aspect of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in promoting public understanding of science. The Association for the Promotion of Science and Technology also encourages young people to choose scientific research, especially Basic scientific research As a career in the future.

"2061 Plan"

In 1985, the American Council for the Promotion of Science and Technology targeted the United States science education Put forward and implement the existing problems in“ 2061 Plan ”With a view to adapting the scientific literacy of all American citizens to the United States by the middle of the 21st century National development strategy Needs. This is a Long term plan The purpose is to comprehensively improve the literacy of American citizens in science, mathematics and technology. Its content not only involves the principles of science and technology, but also includes scientific research processes and methods, scientific development history Science, technology and society Relationship between.

“ 2061 Plan ”The main report of is Science for All Americans. This report is also the programmatic document of the plan. The 2061 Plan has a scientist A group of mathematicians and technicians to determine what we should know and what we can do in science, mathematics and technology for the next generation. The group proposed five independent scientific and technological fields Science and technology education The five areas are: physics and information science And engineering; Biological and Health Sciences: Social and behavioral science ； mathematics; Technology. The panel's recommendations were expressed in an easy to understand language and included in the report Science for All Americans.
