OISE-0838105Mary L. Realff, Georgia TechThis award supports U.S. participation in an international workshop to be held at Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia from November 17?18, 2008. The workshop will address issues relating to the internationalization of research and higher education.In an increasingly globalized economy, science careers are becoming more and more international, and the market place for talent in science and technology goes beyond national boundaries. Universities and research institutes worldwide are addressing these developments by setting-up exchange programs, double and/or joint degrees, as well as foreign campuses. Several European Union/United States (EU/US) cooperation schemes are already promoting the training and mobility of researchers and are likely to be further developed in the future. The proposed workshop will enable the determination and exchange of best practices in existing programs, identify barriers to increasing internationalization of graduate education and identify means of increasing the exchange of students in graduate programs in the EU and US.The workshop planning and organization has been a collaborative effort during the French Presidency of the European Union and includes the U.S. Department of State, the U.S. Department of Education, the Georgia Institute of Technology, the Delegation of the European Commission, the French, Czech, Slovenian and Swedish Embassy and the other 23 European Union Embassies in Washington, DC.Intellectual Merit The intellectual merit of this proposal includes the advancement of best practices in international graduate education and research and the development of plans for increasing the number of US graduate students and researchers engaged in international graduate education. The workshop will bring together experts such as scientists and engineers with experience in conducting international research collaborations, graduate study abroad programs and graduate student exchange programs. Participants will also include policy-makers at universities, research institutes, companies, ministries, agencies and research promotion organizations concern with international exchange of researchers.Broader Impacts The workshop will include approximately 200 participants from the European Union and from the United States. The workshop will impact the graduate education programs offered in the US and abroad. Participants will be chosen such that a diverse group will be attending the workshop. Particular attention will be given to include participants from groups underrepresented in science and engineering (e.g., underrepresented minorities, women, and persons with disabilities. The findings of the workshop will be presented in a final report. Workshop findings will also be presented at the NSF sponsored Women?s International Research Engineering Summit that will be held in Barcelona, Spain in April 2009.

OISE-0838105Mary L.该奖项支持美国参加将于11月17日在格鲁吉亚州亚特兰大市格鲁吉亚理工学院举行的国际研讨会？2008年18日。 研讨会将讨论与研究和高等教育国际化有关的问题。在日益全球化的经济中，科学事业越来越国际化，科技人才的市场也超越了国界。 世界各地的大学和研究机构正在通过设立交流项目、双学位和/或联合学位以及外国校园来应对这些发展。 欧洲联盟/美国（欧盟/美国）的几项合作计划已经在促进研究人员的培训和流动，今后可能会得到进一步发展。 拟议的研讨会将使现有方案的最佳实践的确定和交流，确定研究生教育的国际化，并确定增加研究生课程在欧盟和美国的学生交流的障碍。研讨会的规划和组织一直是法国担任欧盟轮值主席国期间的合作努力，包括美国国务院，美国教育部、格鲁吉亚理工学院、欧盟委员会代表团、法国、捷克、斯洛文尼亚和瑞典大使馆以及其他23个欧盟驻华盛顿大使馆，本提案的学术价值包括促进国际研究生教育和研究的最佳做法，以及制定计划，增加从事国际研究生教育的美国研究生和研究人员的数量。 研讨会将汇集专家，如科学家和工程师，在进行国际研究合作，研究生出国留学计划和研究生交流计划的经验。 参加者还将包括大学、研究机构、公司、部委、机构和研究促进组织的决策者，他们关注研究人员的国际交流。更广泛的影响来自欧盟和美国的约200名与会者将参加研讨会。 该研讨会将影响在美国和国外提供的研究生教育课程。与会者将被选择，这样一个不同的群体将参加研讨会。将特别注意包括来自科学和工程领域代表性不足的群体的与会者（例如，代表性不足的少数族裔、妇女和残疾人。研讨会的结果将在最后报告中介绍。 研讨会的结果也将在NSF赞助的妇女？2009年4月在西班牙巴塞罗那举行的国际研究工程峰会。
