Abstract

This thesis is an analysis of the accommodation of science policy at the federal level in Canada during the 1963 to 1977 period. A general definition of science policy is developed in the first section. This ‘national science policy’ concept is then used to study changes in the administration of science and research at the federal level. Two distinct sets of developments were found to be responsible for the incorporation of national science policy into the administrative procedures and the political arena.
