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-

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 goals for strategic outcomes: enabling discovery across
the frontier of science and engineering, connected to learning,
innovation and service of society; development of a diverse,
internationally competitive and globally-engaged workforce of
scientists, engineers and well-prepared citizens; and providing broadly
accessible,
[[Page 1074]]
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.
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 globally-engaged 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 Experimental
Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) broadens
participation of States and regions in science and engineering by
helping institutions expand their research capacity and competitiveness.
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 and private-public
partnerships in K-12 education, enrichment courses, and systemic reform
activities. This appropriation also supports NSF's active development of
performance indicators.

science, research and education. These efforts include major
international projects, such as operation of the GEMINI telescope, and
the NSF Ocean drilling program. Other smaller activities supported
include cooperative research, joint seminars, exchange of senior
scientists, short-term research development visits, international
conferences, and support for certain special functions of NSF and the
National Science Board. These funds are not otherwise available.
