The objective of this project is to organize a national forum to discuss critical issues and actions in response to the shortage of power engineering workforce in the future. This forum allows leaders from government, industry, faculty and students, and professional societies to work synergistically toward a national action agenda. The approach is address important issues such as the future demand and supply of the workforce and the nation's capacity to educate power engineers at the universities. To attract best talents into power engineering, the curriculum innovation and diversity issues must be addressed. Intellectual merits: This project are achieved by studying the workforce issue in a comprehensive framework involving essential stakeholders, including government, industry, universities and professional societies. Based on properly acquired survey data, the result will be a gap analysis between supply and demand for the future workforce. Scientific analysis will be performed for the data and conclusions to ensure the validity of the results. Broader impacts:This project are expected to be significant. The workshop will lead to a roadmap to strengthen the U.S. capacity to educate future power engineers, to provide a well-educated workforce for power engineering that ensures reliable and economic supply of electric energy in the U.S., and to develop new ideas for innovation of research and educational infrastructure in power engineering at U.S. universities. Diversity of the future workforce can be enhanced with a coordinated action agenda.

该项目的目标是组织一个全国论坛，讨论关键问题和行动，以应对未来电力工程劳动力的短缺。该论坛允许来自政府，行业，教师和学生以及专业团体的领导人协同努力，制定国家行动议程。这种方法是解决重要问题，如未来的需求和供应的劳动力和国家的能力，教育电力工程师在大学。为了吸引优秀人才进入电力工程专业，必须解决课程改革和多元化问题。 智力优点：这一项目是通过在一个综合框架内研究劳动力问题来实现的，该框架涉及重要的利益攸关方，包括政府、工业、大学和专业协会。根据适当获得的调查数据，结果将是对未来劳动力供求之间的差距进行分析。对数据和结论进行科学分析，确保结果的有效性。 更广泛的影响：预计该项目将具有重大意义。该研讨会将制定一个路线图，以加强美国教育未来电力工程师的能力，为电力工程提供受过良好教育的劳动力，确保美国可靠和经济的电能供应，并为美国大学的动力工程研究和教育基础设施的创新开发新的想法。未来劳动力的多样性可以通过协调一致的行动议程来加强。
