  • Government Science and Engineering Organisational Directory of Expertise
    Government Science and Engineering organisational directory of expertise Version 1.2 Government Science & Engineering (GSE) Science and engineering capability in government About the directory The online directory was developed by the Departmental Heads of Science and Engineering Profession in partnership with the Government Office for Science as an action of the 2012 government science and engineering review: ‘Making the most of scientists and engineers in government’. Its purpose is to help articulate the science and engineering capability in government and to help build networks across and within organisations. Our aims in developing it are to aid senior decision makers in establishing links to other organisations and locate experts; help more clearly define the Government Science & Engineering (GSE) cohort; and enable individuals in the GSE profession to build understanding, links and organisational resilience. The directory entries do not seek to list in-depth information or details on every area in which a given organisation is expert. Instead they are designed to be readily accessible to the non- specialist, contain basic information and sign-post ways of finding more detail. This document contains clickable links that will redirect to websites where further relevant information may be found along with contact details for key staff who may be able to help direct enquiries to the most suitable individual. We are grateful to the working group led by Alan Pratt (Home Office) for their efforts in bringing together this resource, and to officials across the GSE network for providing material for the entries. If you believe a link is broken please contact the GSE team at the Government Office for Science.

Engineering has a role across many areas of Government work, and will be critical to the success of a number of key challenges, such as mitigating climate change and security. Amongst other activities, Government engineers contribute to policy, provide capability to respond to emergencies, set standards, develop national and European legislation and provide an 'intelligent customer' function for buying-in advice from industry. 2. Many, if not all, of the big challenges faced by Government will demand creative, flexible, multidisciplinary multi-agency approaches to tackle them effectively. Engineering disciplines and engineering approaches will clearly continue to have a crucial contribution to make. However, in determining the best way forward, it is probably most helpful not to consider science and engineering in traditional terms – as separate
