This collaboration will help Americans understand the connection between technology and human welfare, recognize the distinctions between science and engineering, and help them to acquire the knowledge they need to make informed decisions in an increasingly technological age. NSF support will lay the foundation for an expanded engineering advisory presence in Public Television.
