NSF National Visiting Team
March 31-April 1, 2005
Speakers and Presenters    

The National Visiting Committee fulfills a vital role in a National Science Foundation (NSF) ATE (Advance Technological Education) center. Unlike an advisory committee, the NVC not only reports to the center, but also to NSF. NVC’s work with NSF and the center to provide advice to project leadership, assess the center’s progress, provide national “big picture” point of view, make recommendations for improvement, and provide assistance, promotion & dissemination of results. The committee physically comes together at least once every year at the Center site.
