===Overseas sites=== Prior to October 2018, NSF maintained three overseas offices to promote collaboration between the science and engineering communities of the United States and other continents' scientific communities:<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/overseas.jsp|title=NSF Overseas Offices |website=NSF |access-date=April 4, 2018|archive-date=April 5, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180405030809/https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/overseas.jsp|url-status=dead}}</ref> * {{flagicon|Belgium}} [[Brussels]] for Europe, formerly based in [[Paris]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/europe/|title=NSF Europe Regional Office |website=NSF |access-date=April 4, 2018|archive-date=April 5, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180405024528/https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/europe/|url-status=dead}}</ref> (established 1984; relocated to Brussels in 2015) * {{flagicon|Japan}} [[Tokyo]] for East Asia, except China<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/tokyo/|title=NSF Tokyo Regional Office |website=NSF |access-date=April 4, 2018|archive-date=March 14, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180314165230/https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/tokyo/|url-status=dead}}</ref> (established 1960) * {{flagicon|China}} [[Beijing]] for [[China]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/beijing/|title=NSF Beijing Office |website=NSF |access-date=October 22, 2015|archive-date=October 2, 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151002074313/https://www.nsf.gov/od/oise/beijing/|url-status=dead}}</ref> (established 2006) All three overseas offices were shut down in October 2018, to reflect the agency's move to a more nimble international posture. Rather than maintain dedicated offices, NSF will dispatch small teams to specific international institutions. Teams may work for up to a week on-site to evaluate research and explore collaborations with the institution.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.science.org/content/article/national-science-foundation-close-its-overseas-offices|title=National Science Foundation to close its overseas offices|last1=Normile|first1=Dennis|last2=Stone|first2=Richard|date=2018-02-26|website=Science {{!}} AAAS|language=en|access-date=2019-04-01}}</ref>
