Provide community input and advice to CISE, as well as to the larger NSF. Ad hoc subcommittees of the CISE-AC are formed as needed for topics needing longer-term focus and discussion; there are currently three such groups – on partnerships with industry, on education (focusing both on both K-12, and undergraduate education), and on data science. The committee meets twice a year for a day-and a-half each time in DC (typically in May and November). You can read more about the committee at https://www.nsf.gov/cise/advisory.jsp (Note: Although there is an entity - NSF CISE Advisory Committee -- I was not able to select it.)
Note that I started this activity during my last year of phased retirement and the rest of my service on this committee, i.e., until April 30, 2019 (the term is for 3 years), is while I will be Professor Emerita. I retired in January 2017. Grant funding from Texas Advanced Computing Center via NSF grant (UTEP grant account #226351393A. I even asked the person who invited me to be on the committee and he said that most of the people on the committee have NSF grants. The only requested of committee members is that they recuse themselves when there may be a discussion that could present a conflict of interest.

Notes: When a more specific filing date is not available for an individual financial disclosure or conflict of interest form, we use the year the form was filed. If the year was not disclosed, we report the range of years covered by our public records requests. In a few cases, a start date was provided instead of a filing date. In those cases, we use the start date instead.
Fewer than 10% of records from the University of Florida and fewer than 1% of records from the University of Texas system were removed because they did not contain enough information.
ProPublica obtained additional financial disclosures and conflict of interest forms that we have not yet digitized and added to the database. You can download those disclosures in the ProPublica Data Store.
