This proposal is to further support the efforts of the PI ro mentor faculty by hostingthree workshops/mini summits in conjunction with the Center for the Advancement ofScholarship on Engineering Education (CASEE ). The first would bring together selectedAfrican-American faculty at research universities in the summer of 2005 at the NationalAcademy of Engineering (NAE). The second workshop will convene a diverse group of facultyat research universities in the summer of 2005. The third workshop will bring togetherselected Hispanic American faculty at research universities in the fall of 2005. Theintent of these workshops is to develop an action plan in support of Dr. Grant'sconception of the Promoting Under Represented Presence On Science and Engineering faculty(PURPOSE) Institute. In essence, this grant will actively develop, with the input ofsuccessful faculty a peer mentoring infrastructure for underrepresented engineeringfaculty.Key aspects of this initiative will include:(1)Identification of obstacles to the recruitment and retention of minority engineeringfaculty.(2)Identification of critical needs for an interdisciplinary, multicultural faculty peermentoring network(3)Building effective faculty networks and initiating the creation of a roadmap forinstitutional change.The results of the workshops will be presented at professional meetings and made availableon web. The outcomes will also be disseminated to Engineering Deans at the ASEE meetingin 2006 and 2007.

该提案旨在通过与工程教育奖学金促进中心（CASEE）合作举办三次研讨会/小型峰会，进一步支持PI RO导师教师的努力。第一次会议将于2005年夏天在美国国家工程院（NAE）召集研究型大学的非裔美国人教师。第二次讲习班将于2005年夏季召集研究型大学的各种教员。第三次讲习班将于2005年秋季召集研究型大学中选定的西班牙裔美国教师。这些研讨会的目的是制定一项行动计划，以支持格兰特博士关于促进科学和工程学院（目的）研究所代表不足的概念。从本质上讲，这笔赠款将积极发展，与成功的教师的投入，为代表性不足的工程学院的同行指导基础设施。这一举措的关键方面将包括：（1）识别的障碍，招聘和保留少数工程学院。（2）确定跨学科、多元文化的教师同行指导网络的关键需求（3）建立有效的教师网络，并开始创建机构变革路线图。研讨会的结果将在专业会议上发表，并在网上公布。这些成果也将在2006年和2007年的ASEE会议上分发给工程系主任。
