Science in the new Government
CaSE is working to ensure that science and engineering are given due prominence in the new Government after Gordon Brown becomes Prime Minister. We will be meeting the Treasury within the first three weeks of his premiership and are calling for a Ministry of Science
Funding cuts could damage vital work, say Ian Gibson and Peter Cotgreave - 10th April 2007
Brown's chance to create a ministry of science - 16th May 2007
Science Scotland and Wales
CaSE is attempting to make sure that the new administrations in Scotland and Wales will adopt key policies to support science and engineering.
Science and Engineering Policies for the Next Welsh Assembly: Agenda 2007 - 11
Science and Engineering Policies for the Next Scottish Assembly: Agenda 2007 - 11
CaSE says it is vital that during these difficult economic times the UK continues to sustain its increased investment in science and engineering.
The Campaign for Science & Engineering's latest policy report, International Excellence: Valuing International Scientists and Engineers, urged the government to take a co-ordinated approach to its science and migration policies.
CaSE today celebrates the increase of about a third in entries into separate science GCSEs.
CaSE was delighted that the small rises seen in last year’s A level entries into physics and chemistry were sustained this year and extended to biology. Entries in biology increased by 1447, chemistry by 1395 and physics by 630.
