This award will fund two years of Summer Institutes for young investigators of socio-technical systems. The Summer Institutes are designed to foster intellectual depth and development among the young researchers who attend. These workshops will be managed by the Consortium for the Science of Socio-Technical Systems (CSST). The CSST resulted from recognizing the growing importance of research on the interplay of humans and technology, or socio-technical systems as identified by prior intellectual and community building efforts of the NSF. The CSST involves faculty members in diverse fields, such as social informatics, social computing, CSCW, computational social science, HCI, and information science. The Summer Institute select late stage graduate students and early stage faculty for participation in the program through competitive review of a research based submission. Through an intensive multi-day program the Summer Institute provides an opportunity for research programs to be shaped through intellectual exchange with more experienced researchers as well as enhanced through collaboration with other young researchers. The intellectual experience during the Summer Institute facilitates creation of a social network among the participants and with several senior researchers who serve as instructors for the Institute. This network plays a major role in the professional development of the participants and in the evolution of the field of socio-technical systems research. The diversity of Summer Institute participants (e.g., institutional, disciplinary, geographic, gender, minority group status), serves to broaden participants' perspectives at a critical stage in their careers. In addition, there will be more attention to organizing the CSST and developing more ways to increase the visibility of the CSST activities.

该奖项将为年轻的社会技术系统研究人员提供两年的暑期研究所资助。暑期研究所旨在促进参加的年轻研究人员的知识深度和发展。这些讲习班将由社会技术系统科学联合会管理。CSST的产生是因为认识到人类与技术或社会技术系统相互作用的研究日益重要，这是由NSF先前的知识和社区建设工作确定的。CSST涉及不同领域的教师，如社会信息学，社会计算，CSCW，计算社会科学，HCI和信息科学。暑期研究所选择后期阶段的研究生和早期阶段的教师参与该计划通过基于研究的提交竞争性审查。通过密集的多日计划，暑期研究所提供了一个机会，通过与更有经验的研究人员进行智力交流，并通过与其他年轻研究人员的合作来加强研究计划。暑期研究所期间的知识经验有助于在参与者之间以及与担任研究所讲师的几位高级研究人员建立社会网络。该网络在参与者的专业发展和社会技术系统研究领域的发展中发挥着重要作用。 暑期学院参与者的多样性（例如，机构、学科、地域、性别、少数群体地位），有助于在学员职业生涯的关键阶段拓宽他们的视角。 此外，将更加重视组织委员会的活动，并制定更多的方法来提高委员会活动的知名度。
