项目摘要

The American Association of Engineering Society (AAES) proposes to convene anaction-focused summit on diversity in engineering to be held on April 2-3, 2003. The event will be hosted be the NAE in Washington, DC, with lead financial support from the GE Fund and Intel Corporation. Engineering societies, whether or not they are members of AAES, are invited to send the appropriate volunteer and staff person who are leading the organization's diversity programs to participate in the summit.Some engineering societies have a long history of involvement in efforts to increase the participants of women and minorities in engineering, while others have begun to address these issues more recently. The April meeting is designed to help engineering societies increase the impact of existing programs and identify new ways to strengthen the engineering profession through increased diversity. Participants will be asked to develop specific action plan for their organizations as well as collaborative activities. Prior to the April meeting, AAES will collect information from the invited organizations on their current diversity policies, programs, and activities. A second meeting in the summer of 2003 will finalize plans for follow-up activities.This award provides $15,000 to AAES to support travel for 19 engineering society volunteer leaders to participate in the diversity summit.

美国工程学会(AAES)建议于2003年4月2-3日召开一次以行动为重点的工程多样性峰会。此次活动将由华盛顿特区的NAE主办，通用电气基金和英特尔公司将提供主要资金支持。工程学会，无论它们是否AAES的成员，都被邀请派遣适当的志愿者和领导该组织多样性计划的工作人员参加峰会。一些工程学会长期以来一直致力于增加妇女和少数族裔参与工程学的努力，而另一些则是最近才开始解决这些问题。4月份的会议旨在帮助工程学会提高现有项目的影响力，并确定通过增加多样性来加强工程专业的新方法。与会者将被要求为其组织和协作活动制定具体的行动计划。在4月的会议之前，AAES将从受邀组织收集关于其当前多样性政策、计划和活动的信息。2003年夏季的第二次会议将最终确定后续活动的计划。这项奖励将向AAES提供15,000美元，以支持19名工程学会志愿者领导人参加多样性峰会的旅费。
