Proposal Title: 2011 AEESP Conference and CAREER Workshop: Global SustainabilityPrincipal Investigator: Jeffrey CunninghamInstitution: University of South Florida Proposal No: CBET-1115178The purpose of this proposal is to partially support the 2011 AEESP Research and Education Conference, including a workshop to assist junior faculty members with career planning and with the preparation of NSF CAREER proposals. The 2011 AEESP Research and Education Conference (hereafter referred to as the Conference) will be hosted by the University of South Florida (USF) in Tampa, Florida, July 1012, 2011. USF was selected to host the 2011 Conference through a competitive proposal process.The intellectual merit of this proposal resides in the fact that the Conference is the flagship event of the Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP). This conference serves as a venue for the exchange of information between the academic and practitioner communities, particularly relating to the advancement of innovative research and the preparation of students for professional practice in environmental engineering. In this regard, the Conference benefits the practice of environmental engineering and science, improves our collective ability to educate the next generation of environmental engineers and scientists, and facilitates discovery and advancement of knowledge in our field. The Conference is typically well attended by Environmental Engineering/Science professors from throughout the United States. Anticipated attendance at the 2011 Conference is approximately 300400 attendees, including graduate students and early-career faculty.This conference is expected to result in several broader impacts, including the following. (1) The theme of the Conference is global sustainability, which will help to prepare faculty and students to be globally competitive by promoting dialog and increasing awareness of different global perspectives. (2) Incorporation of professional practitioners at this years Conference aims to attract, train, and retain a more diverse, globally integrated, and competitive science and engineering workforce. (3) The integration of research and education within the six Conference tracks, coupled with the workshops held in conjunction with the Conference, will lead to innovation in course and curriculum development. (4) AEESP will recruit members of groups underrepresented in environmental engineering to participate in the workshops, particularly the CAREER workshop. This will include graduate students, post-doctoral researchers, and early-career faculty members. (5) Four nationally-prominent individuals have been invited to deliver keynote speeches at the Conference. The participation of these nationally prominent individuals at the Conference will provide Conference attendees with perspectives and opportunities not typically available to educators and practitioners in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering. (6) A post-conference report of highlights and findings from the Conference will be published in the quarterly AEESP newsletter and will be disseminated through other appropriate channels (web site, email distribution list, etc.).

提案名称：2011年AEESP会议和职业研讨会：全球可持续性项目负责人：Jeffrey cunningham机构：南佛罗里达大学提案号：cbet -1115178本提案的目的是部分支持2011年AEESP研究和教育会议，包括一个研讨会，帮助初级教师进行职业规划和准备NSF职业建议。2011年AEESP研究与教育会议（以下简称会议）将于2011年7月12日在佛罗里达州坦帕市由南佛罗里达大学（USF）主办。通过竞争性提案程序，USF被选为2011年会议的主办国。这一建议的学术价值在于，该会议是环境工程与科学教授协会（AEESP）的旗舰活动。这次会议是学术界和实践者之间交流信息的场所，特别是与创新研究的进步和为环境工程专业实践的学生做准备有关。在这方面，会议有利于环境工程和科学的实践，提高我们教育下一代环境工程师和科学家的集体能力，并促进我们领域知识的发现和进步。来自美国各地的环境工程/科学教授通常都出席了会议。预计参加2011年会议的人数约为300400人，其中包括研究生和早期职业教师。预计这次会议将产生若干更广泛的影响，包括以下几点。(1)会议的主题是全球可持续性，这将有助于通过促进对话和提高对不同全球视角的认识，使教师和学生具备全球竞争力。(2)在今年的会议上，专业从业者的加入旨在吸引、培训和留住更加多样化、全球一体化和有竞争力的科学和工程劳动力。(3)在会议的六个轨道内将研究和教育结合起来，加上与会议同时举行的讲习班，将导致课程和课程发展方面的创新。(4) AEESP将招募环境工程领域代表性不足的群体的成员参加讲习班，特别是职业生涯讲习班。这将包括研究生、博士后研究人员和早期职业教师。(5)邀请了4位全国知名人士在会议上发表主旨演讲。这些全国知名人士参加会议将为与会者提供环境科学与工程领域的教育工作者和实践者通常无法获得的观点和机会。(6)会议的重点和研究成果的会后报告将在AEESP季刊上发表，并将通过其他适当的渠道（网站、电子邮件分发清单等）进行传播。
