Office of the Chief Scientist and Chief Technologist
JPL's abilities to meet NASA exploration and science objectives depends on the development and application of advanced technologies as well as conducting progressive scientific research to advance our state of knowledge and charter future directions.
In collaboration with program offices and other experts in science and technology fields, The Office of the Chief Scientist and Chief Technologist (OCSCT) coordinates and identifies a number of strategic areas that are critical to JPL's strength as applied to NASA's future success, and works with these groups to facilitate the setting of goals for implementation planning, resource acquisition and partnerships. More information can be found in the JPL Strategic Technology Plan.
