Engineering - Other (59)The project is supporting a workshop to begin organizing an undergraduate curriculum around the National Academy of Engineering's Grand Challenges by creating a Grand Challenges Scholars Program (GCSP). The goal of the workshop is to develop a critical mass of no fewer than ten engineering schools with active GCSPs that are educating undergraduate students by Fall 2010. This is being accomplished by inviting teams from the seventeen engineering schools that have expressed interest along with several other schools to increase the diversity of the participants. The workshop's agenda includes discussion of the objectives for an institutional GCSP for engineering undergraduates; the merits of and challenges in developing a GCSP from the perspective of academic and business leaders; fund raising strategies; an outline for vetting, revising, and submitting a plan to the national GCSP steering committee; and implementing a program. The workshop organizer are planning to present sessions on the workshop at the FIE and ASEE meetings to share their ideas and results with the broader community.

工程-其他（59）该项目正在支持一个研讨会，通过创建一个大挑战学者计划（GCSP），围绕国家工程院的大挑战开始组织本科课程。 研讨会的目标是发展一个临界质量不少于十个工程学校与积极的GCSP是教育本科生到2010年秋季。这是通过邀请来自17所工程学校的团队来实现的，这些学校和其他几所学校都表示有兴趣增加参与者的多样性。 研讨会的议程包括讨论工程本科生机构GCSP的目标;从学术和商业领袖的角度来看，发展GCSP的优点和挑战;筹资战略;审查，修订和提交计划的大纲国家GCSP指导委员会;和实施计划。 研讨会组织者计划在FIE和ASEE会议上介绍研讨会的内容，与更广泛的社区分享他们的想法和成果。
