evaluate the scientific quality and relevance of planned research and development projects,
examine the progress of work and results obtained in the course of the year,
propose the Director of the OST, who is appointed for a 4-year term, renewable once, to the President of Hcéres.

The COS is composed of six women and six men chosen by the President of the High Council for their expertise and appointed by him/her further to an opinion from the Hcéres Board. The term of office, including for the President of the COS, is four years, renewable once. Half of the members of the COS are replaced every two years.
