About CVD
The Science, Engineering and Technology
Congressional Visits Day (SET CVD) is an annual two-day event that
brings scientists, engineers, researchers, educators, and technology
executives to Washington to raise visibility and support for science,
engineering, and technology. Uniquely multi-sector and multi-disciplinary,
the SET CVD is coordinated by a coalition of companies, professional societies
and educational institutions and it is open to all who support
science and technology. The
two-day program consists of a series of briefings and meetings highlighted
with visits to your Congressional delegates.
CVD's Objectives
SET CVD raises
awareness of the long-term
importance of science, engineering and technology to the nation through face-to-face meetings with
Members of Congress, congressional staff, key Administration officials and
other decision-makers.
The core messages we ask
participants to deliver are:
- Balanced federal investment in
Science, Engineering and Technology is fundamental to the future of
our Nation's prosperity.
- Science, Engineering and
Technology partnerships between government, universities, and
industries mean progress, economic growth and jobs for our Nation.
