This award supports three Frontiers of Engineering (FoE) Symposia through the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). The U.S. Frontiers of Engineering (September 22-24 in Niskayuna, NY) will cover the topics: Detection and Destruction of Pathogens, and Pure Water Technologies. The US FoE themes involve Engineering for Extreme Environments, Designer Materials, Multiscale Modeling, and Engineering and Entertainment. The German-American Frontiers of Engineering (May 5-7 in Potsdam, Germany) will be held in cooperation with the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation). The themes selected are Visual Communication, Air Transportation, Energy Byproducts: Control and Remediation Technologies, and Micro-reactors in Chemical Synthesis/Drug Development. The Japan-America Frontiers of Engineering Symposium (November 3-5, 2005 in San Jose, CA) will be jointly supported by the Engineering Academy of Japan and Japan Science and Technology Agency. The topics include Humanoid Robots, Semiconductor R&D, Biotechnology: The FoE activity is designed to bring together select groups of engineers from industry, academia, and government labs to discuss pioneering technical work and leading edge research in various engineering fields and industry sectors. All in all about 100 outstanding young engineers, 30 from each country, will participate in the meeting. Speakers are asked to address issues such as what the frontiers in their field are; what experiments and prototypes are in progress; what new tools and instruments are available; what the major impediments to progress are; and what the theoretical, commercial, societal, and long-term significance of the work is. Invitees are accomplished engineers from both industry academia who have made recognized contributions to advancing the frontiers of engineering. The primary benefit of the workshop is that it fosters new interactions between the best junior U.S., Japanese, and German engineers from different fields and sectors. Today's most exciting and powerful engineering developments occur at the intersection of disciplines. By creating the opportunity for sharing of research insights and techniques across a range of fields, this workshop facilitates leaps in knowledge and applications that might otherwise take much longer to achieve.

该奖项通过国家工程院（NAE）支持三个工程前沿（FoE）研讨会。美国工程前沿（9月22日至24日在纽约州尼斯卡尤纳）将涵盖的主题：病原体的检测和销毁，以及纯水技术。美国的FoE主题涉及极端环境工程，设计师材料，多尺度建模以及工程和娱乐。德美工程前沿（5月5日至7日在德国波茨坦举行）将与亚历山大冯洪堡基金会合作举行。选定的主题是视觉传达，航空运输，能源副产品：控制和补救技术，以及化学合成/药物开发中的微反应器。日美工程前沿研讨会（2005年11月3日至5日在加利福尼亚州圣何塞举行）将由日本工程院和日本科学技术厅共同支持。主题包括人形机器人，半导体&研发，生物技术：FoE活动旨在汇集来自工业界，学术界和政府实验室的工程师团队，讨论各种工程领域和工业部门的开创性技术工作和前沿研究。总共约有100名优秀的年轻工程师，每个国家30名，将参加会议。演讲者被要求解决的问题，如在他们的领域的前沿是什么;什么样的实验和原型正在进行中;什么新的工具和仪器是可用的;进步的主要障碍是什么;和什么样的理论，商业，社会和长期意义的工作是。受邀者是来自工业界和学术界的有成就的工程师，他们为推进工程前沿做出了公认的贡献。研讨会的主要好处是，它促进了美国最好的年轻人之间的新互动，来自不同领域的日本和德国工程师。今天最令人兴奋和强大的工程发展发生在学科的交叉点。通过创造机会，在一系列领域分享研究见解和技术，这个研讨会促进知识和应用的飞跃，否则可能需要更长的时间才能实现。
