0413962HunzikerThis award supports the participation of young American engineers in a U.S.-Japan joint seminar on frontiers of engineering to be held in Keihanna, Japan from November 4-6, 2004. The co-organizers are Professor James G. Fujimoto at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston and Dr. Kazuhiro Sakurada of the Kyowa Hakko Kogyo Company in Tokyo, Japan. In an effort to enhance networks among young Japanese and American engineers and their home institutions, the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), the Engineering Academy of Japan (EAJ), and the Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) are organizing the Fourth Japan-American Frontiers of Engineering Symposium. This activity is designed to bring together a select group of young emerging American and Japanese leaders from academia, government labs and industry to discuss pioneering technical work and leading edge research in various engineering fields and industry sectors. The goal of the symposium is to facilitate an interdisciplinary transfer of knowledge and methodology that could eventually lead to collaborative networks of young engineers from the two countries. About 60 outstanding young engineers, 30 from each country, will participate in the meeting. The program organizers, consisting of 10 distinguished younger engineers, will organize the symposium and identify topics and speakers. Sessions will consist of talks by speakers on advances and opportunities in their engineering fields followed by discussion. Speakers will focus their talks on cutting-edge research and innovation, keeping in mind that the audience will be technically sophisticated but nonspecialists.The co-organizers have complementary engineering expertise in the field. This enables them to evaluate and attract the best engineering researchers to participate. The interdisciplinary nature of the meeting facilitates interactions that would not have occurred otherwise. The exchange of ideas and data with Japanese experts in the field will enable U.S. participants to advance their own work, and will set the stage for future collaborative projects. Following the seminar the organizers plan to establish a workshop web page. Conference proceedings will be published on this web site.

0413962Hunzier该奖项支持美国年轻工程师参加将于2004年11月4日至6日在日本凯哈纳举行的美日工程前沿联合研讨会。联合组织者是波士顿麻省理工学院的James G.Fujimoto教授和日本东京Kyowa Hakko Kogyo公司的Kazuhiro Sakurada博士。为了加强日本和美国年轻工程师及其本国机构之间的网络，日本国家工程院(NAE)、日本工程院(EAJ)和日本科学技术厅(JST)正在组织第四届日美工程前沿研讨会。这一活动旨在汇聚一批来自学术界、政府实验室和工业界的年轻的新兴美国和日本领导人，讨论各个工程领域和行业的开创性技术工作和前沿研究。研讨会的目标是促进知识和方法的跨学科转移，最终可能导致两国青年工程师的合作网络。约60名优秀青年工程师将参加会议，每个国家30名。由10名杰出的年轻工程师组成的项目组织者将组织研讨会，并确定主题和演讲者。会议将由演讲者就各自工程领域的进展和机会进行演讲，然后进行讨论。演讲者将专注于尖端研究和创新，记住听众将是技术复杂但不是专业人士。联合组织者在该领域拥有互补的工程专业知识。这使他们能够评估并吸引最好的工程研究人员参与。会议的跨学科性质促进了原本不会发生的互动。与该领域的日本专家交换想法和数据将使美国参与者能够推进他们自己的工作，并将为未来的合作项目奠定基础。研讨会结束后，组织者计划建立一个研讨会网页。会议记录将在本网站上公布。
