        The research and related activities appropriation enables the United
    States to provide leadership and promote progress across the expanding
    frontiers of scientific and engineering research and education. 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, state-of-the-art 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.

    [[Page 1036]]

        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 reform of
    science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education
    through the development of public-private partnerships. 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 support training activities for pre-
    service and in-service STEM teachers. Undergraduate programs improve
    curricula, strengthen laboratory course offerings, enhance faculty, and
    lead reform efforts in STEM disciplines. Programs for advanced
    technological education strengthen education for students preparing to
    enter the high-technology workforce. Graduate level support is directed
    primarily to fellowships and traineeships to sustain the U.S. world
    leadership in science and technology. All EHR programming focuses on
    broadening participation of groups underrepresented in STEM 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 STEM 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 undergraduate and graduate scholarships in
    computer science, mathematics, and engineering and private-public
    partnerships in K-12 for STEM education. This appropriation also
    supports NSF's active development of performance indicators.
