Based on the previous successful WIRES1 conference in June 2009 in Spain; and the positive outcomes of WIRES1, the PIs proposed this summit proposal of WIRES2 to maintain the momentum of the activities and explore creative and potentially transformative face-to-face ways to continue cross-continental engineering research among women. Proposed activities are well conceived and organized with sufficient access to resources.The proposal seeks to fund the participation of approximately 50 US female engineering faculty at the research summit in Orlando, FL facilitating international collaborations in targeted engineering disciplines of sustainable energy, clean water and health care. The PIs expect another 50-60 female engineers from foreign countries to join this summit and to be supported by their academic or research constituents. The proposal provides a sound rationale, and addresses a real need for a clear pathway in pursuing international collaborations; and expanded databases on engineering women faculty and common issues they are facing.

基于2009年6月在西班牙成功举办的WIRES 1会议，以及WIRES 1的积极成果，PI提出了WIRES 2的这次峰会提案，以保持活动的势头，并探索创造性和潜在的变革性面对面方式，继续在女性中进行跨大陆的工程研究。拟议的活动是精心策划和组织的，有足够的资源。该提案旨在资助大约50名美国女工程师参加在佛罗里达州奥兰多举行的研究峰会，促进可持续能源、清洁水和医疗保健等目标工程学科的国际合作。PI预计将有另外50-60名来自外国的女工程师参加这次峰会，并得到其学术或研究机构的支持。该提案提供了一个合理的理由，并解决了一个真实的需要一个明确的途径，在追求国际合作;和扩大数据库的工程女教师和共同面临的问题。
