This seminar series is a continuation of the National Science Foundation and National Bureau of Standards outreach program for technology in science and mathematics for faculty of minority institutions. Two, four-day, seminars will be held (each seminar will consist of two days at NSF and two days at NSB). The meetings will provide an opportunity for NSF of acquaint approximately 60 faculty members from 30-40 minority institutions with relevant NSF programs and NSF in general. It also provides an opportunity for NSF program officers to meet key people at minority institutions who can facilitate the identification of potential reviewers and who can identify minority researchers and encourage their participation in NSF programs. The strengths of the proposal are that (1) evaluations of prior meetings have judged them useful and the evaluation of the recent joint seminar found that the opportunity to learn about NSF programs was judged very important to the faculty who attended, (2) joint sponsorship will significantly reduce the costs for both sponsoring agencies, (3) this form of activity moves beyond passive approaches of individual programs and acts as a catalyst for personnel at both the Foundation and the participating institutions.

这个系列研讨会是国家科学基金会的延续 和国家标准局的技术推广计划， 为少数民族院校的教师提供科学和数学方面的培训。 第二， 为期四天的研讨会将举行（每个研讨会将包括两天 在NSF和两天在NSB）。 这些会议将为NSF提供一个了解 来自30-40所少数民族院校的大约60名教员， 相关的NSF计划和一般的NSF。 它还提供了一个 NSF计划官员有机会在少数民族会议上会见关键人物 能够促进确定潜在的 评审员和谁可以识别少数民族研究人员，并鼓励他们的 参与NSF项目。 该提案的优点是：（1）对以前的会议进行评估 我认为它们是有用的， 我发现，了解NSF计划的机会被认为是非常重要的。 重要的是谁出席的教师，（2）联合赞助将 显着降低两家赞助机构的成本，（3）这 一种活动形式超越了个别项目的被动方法 并作为一个催化剂的人员在基金会和 参与机构。
