Conference Activities Board
RAS financially sponsors approximately 10 conferences, cosponsors 20 more, and technically sponsors 30 others. Conference Activities manages this large conference portfolio through two boards. The Conference Activities Board provides overall oversight on conferences, including planning, logistics, and finances. The Steering Committee for Technical Programs (SCTP) oversees the technical planning and content of conferences. The SCTP also oversees the Conference Editorial Board, which is charged with reviewing papers for ICRA.
