TO NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES was established in 1863 by Act of
Congress as a private, non-profit, self-governing membership corporation for the fur-
therance of science and technology, required to advise the federal government upon
request within its fields of competence. Under its corporate charter the Academy estab-
lished the National Research Council in 1916, the National Academy of Engineering in
1964, and the Institute of Medicine in 1970.
THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF ENGINEERING was founded in 1964 as a non-
profit membership institution, by action of the National Academy of Sciences under
the authority of its congressional charter of 1863 establishing it as a private, self-
governing corporation to further science and technology and to advise the federal gov-
ernment. The two Academies share those purposes in their fields.
THE NATIONAL RESEARCH COUNCIL was established in 1916 by the National
Academy of Sciences to associate the broad community of science and technology with
the Academy's purposes of furthering knowledge and of advising the federal govern-
ment. The Council operates in accordance with general policies determined by the
Academy by authority of its Congressional charter of 1863 as a non-profit, self-governing
membership corporation. Administered jointly by the National Academy of Sciences
the National Academy of Engineering,' and the Institute of Medicine (all three of which
operate under the charter of the National Academy of Sciences), the Council is their
principal agency for the conduct of their services to the government and the scientific
and engineering communities.
'lithe COMMISSION ON SOCIOTECHNICAL SYSTEMS is one of the major com-
ponents of the National Research -Council and has' general responsibility for and
cognizance over those program areas concerned with physical, technological, and in-
dustrial systems that are or may be deployed in the public or private sector to serve
societal needs.

THE NATIONAL- MATERIALS ADVISORY BOARD is a unit of the Commission on
Sociotechnical Systems of the National Research Council. Organized in 1951 as the
Metallurgical Advisory Board, through a series of changes and expansion of scope, it
became the Materials Advisory Board and, in January 1969,' the National Materials
Advisory Board. In consonance with the scope of the two Academies, me general purpose
of the Board is the advancement of materials science and engineering, in the national
interest. The Board fulfills its purpose by: providing advice and assistance,' on request, to
government~agencies and to private organizations on matters of materials science and
technology affecting the national interest; focusing attention on the materials aspects
of national problems and opportunities, both technical and nontechnical in nature, and
making appropriate recommendations as to the solution of such problems and the
exploitation of these opportunities; performing studies and critical analyses on mate-
rials problems of a national scope, recommending approaches to the solution of these
problems, and providing continuing guidance in the implementation of resulting
activities; identifying problems in the interactions of materials disciplines with other
technical functions, and defining approaches for the effective utilization of materials
technologies; cooperating in the development of advanced educational concepts and
approaches in the materials disciplines; communicating and disseminating information
on Board activities and related national concerns, promoting cooperation with and
among the materials-related professional societies; maintaining an awareness of trends
and significant advances in materials technology, in order to call attention to opportuni-
ties and possible roadblocks, and their implications for other fields, and recognizing and
promoting the development and application of advanced concepts in materials and ma-
terials processes.
