Scientists and Engineers for America Budget
FY2015 (July 1, 2014 - June 30, 2015)
Scientists and Engineers for America (SEA) is a well-established national organization, aims to emphasize the importance and effectiveness science policy; to demonstrate the urgency of scientists and engineers to become active in the US political process; and to develop methods of questioning politicians and candidates about science, technology and health issues. By being a local Chapter, we will be leveraging on their existing network and resources to provide the Carnegie Mellon campus community with opportunities to learn about and engage in science policy and raise the campus community’s awareness of science policy.
