The United States Universities Council on Geotechnical Education and Research (USUCGER) will hold an Early Career Geotechnical Engineering Conference on 8 July 2012 in Boston, Massachusetts, in conjunction with NSF's Civil, Mechanical and Manufacturing Innovation (CMMI) Engineering Research and Innovation Conference. This award is for the planning and facilitating this Early Career Geotechnical Engineering Conference which will be the first of its kind for the Geotechnical Engineering research community in several respects. First, the Conference is aimed at addressing issues of importance to early career faculty. Next, the Conference includes an explicit focus on facilitating research connections between participants. This Early Career Conference will provide an opportunity for early career geotechnical engineering faculty to learn of on-going research under the direction of other early career faculty, meet geotechnical engineering faculty at other institutions to facilitate collaborations, and learn of federal funding opportunities for their research.This Early Career Conference seeks to enhance the diversity of participation by supporting early career faculty through stipends to attend the conference and to stay for the NSF CMMI conference. The Conference will also provide keynote speakers representative of the diversity in geotechnical engineering. By focusing on Early Career Faculty where the demographics are more diverse than later career faculty, the participants will be provided tools and guidance that will no doubt enhance their probability of success in Geotechnical Engineering.

美国大学理事会岩土工程教育和研究（USUCGER）将于2012年7月8日在马萨诸塞州波士顿举行早期职业岩土工程会议，同时举行NSF土木、机械和制造创新（CMMI）工程研究和创新会议。这个奖项是为了规划和促进这个早期职业岩土工程会议，这将是第一次为岩土工程研究界在几个方面。 首先，会议旨在解决对早期职业教师重要的问题。 其次，会议明确侧重于促进与会者之间的研究联系。 这个早期职业会议将为早期职业岩土工程教师提供一个机会，让他们了解其他早期职业教师指导下正在进行的研究，与其他机构的岩土工程教师会面，以促进合作，并了解联邦资助他们的研究机会。这个早期职业会议旨在通过支持早期职业教师通过津贴参加，以提高参与的多样性参加NSF CMMI会议。 会议还将提供代表岩土工程多样性的主旨发言人。通过专注于早期职业学院，那里的人口比后来的职业学院更多样化，参与者将获得工具和指导，这无疑将提高他们在岩土工程中成功的可能性。
