Science Council
The Science Council is the umbrella body covering scientific professional institutes and learned societies in the UK. Together, the member organisations cover over 150,000 scientists. A similar organisation (ECUK, formerly the Engineering Council) covers engineering institutes. The Science Council is currently in the process of creating a qualification of Chartered Scientist, similar to ECUK's Chartered Engineer and the qualifications such as Chartered Geologist and Chartered Physicist currently offered by member organisations.Member Organisations
