The object of this project is to assist the Program Director in determining what practicing professionals and university faculty believe are the benefits and pitfalls of cooperative research. The rationale for this endeavor is to help maximize the benefits of funding projects when they may result in international cooperative efforts. The project will be accomplished primarily through interviews that will be conducted by phone and in person. The project team may review reports resulting from international conferences and research funded in civil engineering to determine if commonalties exist that support or corroborate information taken from interviews. the project should provide information that can help the NSF refine its decision-making in this area of grant giving, making international cooperative research more effective and resulting in information that will benefit the field of civil engineering. ***

这个项目的目的是协助项目主任确定哪些专业人士和大学教师认为合作研究的好处和缺点。这一努力的基本原理是，当资助项目可能导致国际合作努力时，帮助使其利益最大化。该项目将主要通过电话和面对面的访谈来完成。项目小组可以审查国际会议和土木工程资助研究的报告，以确定是否存在支持或证实从访谈中获得的信息的共性。该项目应提供信息，以帮助美国国家科学基金会改进其在这一领域的拨款决策，使国际合作研究更有效，并产生有利于土木工程领域的信息。＊＊＊
