This grant supports the 2004 Biennial Conference of the Federation of Materials Societies to be held in Washington DC in May 2004. The conference is titled "Materials Education for the 21st Century Workforce". It helps establish the education needs in materials science for the 21st century and focuses on all aspects of materials education including K-12, undergraduate and graduate education, and continuing education. The scope of the conference will be in six areas: The changing undergraduate and graduate materials curriculum (including issues related to accreditation and continuous improvement), Programs to enhance K-12 education in materials and technology, Continuing education and the role of the community colleges, and education for the non-materials professional, the national infrastructure for research and development, Meeting the needs of industry in metals, metallurgy, microelectronics and soft materials, The present status and future needs of local and national facilities as a resource for the education of future materials scientists and engineers. The venue of the conference and workshop will include one distinguished plenary session, invited presentations covering the above topics, panel discussions with recorded recommendations. Participation from industry and academia will be sought. This proposed conference has national importance since materials education will be critical in advancing technology and enhancing the nation's economy, security and health. The conference will concentrate on defining educational requirements for a workforce which will solve industrial and societal needs that require materials development in the new century.

这笔赠款支持将于 2004 年 5 月在华盛顿特区举行的 2004 年材料学会联合会两年一度的会议。该会议的标题是“21 世纪劳动力的材料教育”。它有助于确定 21 世纪材料科学的教育需求，重点关注材料教育的各个方面，包括 K-12、本科生和研究生教育以及继续教育。会议范围将涵盖六个领域：不断变化的本科生和研究生材料课程（包括与认证和持续改进相关的问题）、加强K-12材料和技术教育的计划、继续教育和社区学院的作用、非材料专业教育、国家研发基础设施、满足金属、冶金、微电子和软材料行业的需求、现状和未来 当地和国家设施作为未来材料科学家和工程师教育资源的需求。 会议和研讨会的场地将包括一场杰出的全体会议、涵盖上述主题的特邀演讲、以及记录建议的小组讨论。 将寻求工业界和学术界的参与。这次拟议的会议具有全国重要性，因为材料教育对于推进技术和增强国家经济、安全和健康至关重要。 会议将集中讨论确定劳动力的教育要求，以解决新世纪材料开发的工业和社会需求。
