2006 Frontiers of Engineering Symposia (U.S., Japan-America, and German-American); Murray Hill, NJ; Dearborn, MI; Tsukuba, Japan

该奖项部分支持由国家工程院举办的三个国内外工程前沿专题讨论会。他们是：德裔美国人，2006年5月4日至6日在新泽西州默里山；美国，2006年9月21日至23日，密歇根州迪尔伯恩福特汽车公司；和日裔美国人，2006年11月9日至11日在日本筑波举行。会议将涵盖工程研究和创新前沿的许多重要和及时的主题，例如与计算和信息技术相关的技术风险管理、网络安全和隐私问题、能源、纳米/生物技术、智能软件、生物机电、系统生物学等。每届研讨会将有60至100名杰出的青年工程师参加。会议将为分享研究见解和技术创造机会，这可能会促进合作，并为美国许多新兴前沿工作提供参考点

0630161HunzikerThis award partially supports a series of three national and international Frontiers of Engineering (FoE) Symposia by the National Academy of Engineering. They are: German-American, May 4-6, 2006 in Murray Hill, NJ; U.S., September 21-23, 2006 at Ford Motor Company, Dearborn, MI; and Japan-American, November 9-11, 2006 in Tsukuba, Japan.Many important and timely topics at the frontiers of engineering research and innovation will be covered, such as managing technology risks, cybersecurity and privacy issues related to computing and information technology, energy resources, nano/bio technology, intelligent software, biomechatronics, systems biology, etc.Between 60 and 100 outstanding young engineers will be involved in each Symposium. The meetings will create the opportunities for sharing of research insights and techniques that may spur collaboration and serve as a reference point for many of the emerging frontiers work in the U.S.
