据《科学与政府报告》报道,在过去的几十年中,国家科学基金会(NSF)一直是美国政府对大学的基础研究提供资助的唯一源泉,而目前在日益高涨的政治呼声下,NSF 不得不将大量资金投入工业研究与技术。NSF 的这种转变方向与其历史上的另一罕见事件重合,即美国国会对其下一财政年度的预算肯定不会增长了,而且没有理由指望情况会在不久的将来好转。近年来,在政治形势的压力下及传统的基本科学研究人员的密切关注下 NSF 已逐渐扩大其工程方面计划,
According to the Science and Government Report, in the past few decades, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has been the only source of subsidy for the U.S. government in providing basic research to universities. Under the current political climate, the NSF Had to put a lot of money into industrial research and technology. This shift in direction of the NSF coincides with another rare event in its history that the U.S. Congress will certainly not increase its budget for the next fiscal year and there is no reason to expect the situation to improve in the near future. In recent years, under the pressure of the political situation and the close attention of traditional basic scientific researchers, NSF has gradually expanded its engineering program,
