UT Arlington RET Site on Hazard Mitigation

该奖项为为期三年的标准奖提供资金，以支持德克萨斯大学阿灵顿工程现场项目中的教师研究经验（RET），该项目名为“UT阿灵顿RET现场减灾”，由努尔Yazdani博士指导。这个为期三年的UT阿灵顿RET现场将汇集来自阿灵顿的42名高中STEM教师，德克萨斯州和周边地区的其他五个学区进行了为期六周的夏季研究，重点是减灾的共同主题。 该网站将涉及一个多学科小组的教师从土木工程，计算机科学，电气工程，工业工程和教育。可再生能源技术网站将培训教师如何应用数学和科学原理解决与减灾有关的问题，如紧急疏散、空气中有毒物质的扩散和加强黑客检测。这些团队将研究“真实世界”的场景，这些场景有助于缓解可能发生的与国土安全、自然灾害和信息安全有关的危机。

This award provides funding for a three year standard award to support a Research Experiences for Teachers (RET) in Engineering Site program at the University of Texas at Arlington entitled, "UT Arlington RET Site on Hazard Mitigation," under the direction of Dr. Nur Yazdani.This three year UT Arlington RET site will bring together a total of 42 high school STEM teachers from the Arlington, Texas and five other school districts from surrounding areas for a six week summer research experience focused around the common theme of hazard mitigation. This site will involve a multi-disciplinary group of faculty members from civil engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, industrial engineering and education. The RET site will train teachers regarding the application of mathematic and scientific principles to solve problems related to hazard mitigation such as emergency evacuations, dispersion of airborne toxics, and enhanced hacker detection. The teams will work on "real-world" scenarios which can help to mitigate crises that may potentially occur as they relate to homeland security, natural disasters and information security.
