The workshop advances the participation of African Americans in the Civil and Mechanical Systems research programs of the National Science Foundation. An on-going external entity is created to assure that these programs achieve at least parity with all other culturally defined groups in proposal submission rates, award rates, and funding levels. The workshop serves as a pilot for other NSF research programs targeting African Americans and as a catalyst for internal upgrade of the productivity expectations of all NSF research program managers relative to the cultural diversity and funding distribution of their research grant awardee populations.

该研讨会促进了非裔美国人参与国家科学基金会的土木工程和机械系统研究计划。创建一个持续的外部实体，以确保这些项目在提案提交率、获奖率和资金水平方面至少与所有其他文化定义的团体持平。该研讨会是NSF其他针对非裔美国人的研究项目的试点，也是所有NSF研究项目经理相对于其研究拨款获得者群体的文化多样性和资金分配的内部生产率提升预期的催化剂。
