<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif">The Science Policy
<span class="gmail-il">Bootcamp</span> is a 4-day short course taught by David Goldston, the current director of the MIT Washington Office. The course will start with an overview of the origins and structures of federal science and technology policy in the
U.S., and then will probe perennial and current issues that arise in the use of science in policy, and in the governance of science. Topics will include the use of science in environmental policy, questions regarding conflicts of interest, and current debates
on international competition in science and technology. The course will be built around class discussions of a variety of readings, including of Congressional hearings, reports from think tanks, and perhaps court decisions and even a play.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
