This engineering education research project seeks to synthesize the results of two prior NSF studies done at Pennsylvania State University: "Prototype to Production: Conditions and Processes for Educating the Engineer of 2020" and "Prototyping the Engineer of 2020: A 360-degree Study of Effective Education". The proposed synthesis will enable audiences of educational administrators and national policy makers to understand best practices that contribute to the goals outlined in the National Academy of Engineering's "The Engineer of 2020" (2004) and "Educating the Engineer of 2020" (2006). The broader significance and importance of this project is to help ensure that best practices in engineering education are broadly adopted by creating a channel for such practices to flow to administrators and policy makers. This project overlaps with NSF's strategic goals of transforming the frontiers by making investments that lead to emerging new fields of engineering, or shifting existing fields. Additionally NSF's goal of innovating for society is enabled by creating results and research that are useful for society by informing educational policy and practices.

该工程教育研究项目旨在综合宾夕法尼亚州立大学之前完成的两项美国国家科学基金会研究的结果：“原型到生产：培养2020年工程师的条件和过程”和“2020年工程师的原型：有效教育的360度研究”。拟议的综合将使教育管理人员和国家政策制定者的受众能够理解有助于实现国家工程院“2020年工程师”（2004年）和“2020年工程师教育”（2006年）中概述的目标的最佳实践。这个项目更广泛的意义和重要性是帮助确保工程教育中的最佳实践被广泛采用，通过为这种实践创造一个流向管理人员和政策制定者的渠道。该项目与NSF的战略目标重叠，即通过投资导致新兴工程领域或转移现有领域来改变前沿。此外，NSF为社会创新的目标是通过创造对社会有用的结果和研究，为教育政策和实践提供信息。
