Science</span> <span class="gmail-il">Policy</span> <span class="gmail-il">Bootcamp</span> is a
<span class="gmail-il">4</span>-<span class="gmail-il">day</span> short <span class="gmail-il">
course</span> taught by David Goldston, the current director of the MIT Washington Office. The
<span class="gmail-il">course</span> will start with an overview of the origins and structures of federal
<span class="gmail-il">science</span> and technology <span class="gmail-il">policy</span> in the U.S., and then will probe perennial and current issues that arise in the use of
<span class="gmail-il">science</span> in <span class="gmail-il">policy</span>, and in the governance of
<span class="gmail-il">science</span>. Topics will include the use of <span class="gmail-il">
science</span> in environmental <span class="gmail-il">policy</span>, questions regarding conflicts of interest, and current debates on international competition in
<span class="gmail-il">science</span> and technology. The <span class="gmail-il">
course</span> 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>
