The Third International Congress on Sustainability Science and Engineering, Cincinnati, Ohio, August 11-15, 2013

CBET-1322172英伦可持续发展科学与工程已成为工程学、自然科学和社会科学各学科中非常活跃的研究领域。发展了可持续性理论和可持续性评估、分析、设计和决策方法以及工具，其中许多方法和工具被用来与工业界合作解决现实世界的问题。第三届可持续发展科学与工程国际大会将讨论更广泛的可持续发展科学和工程问题，促进关于科学和技术发展的讨论，并与科学家、教育工作者、工程师和政府官员分享工业可持续发展方面的研究和实践经验。大会将于2013年8月11日至15日在俄亥俄州辛辛那提举行。对美国学术研究人员、教育工作者和学生的旅行支持应帮助他们了解可持续发展各个领域的尖端研究，与世界级领导者和其他同事分享他们的经验，并在加强可持续工程研究和教育方面寻找国际合作机会。将强烈鼓励初级教职员工、年轻研究人员、研究生和本科生，特别是那些在科学和工程领域代表性不足的少数族裔参加。学生海报论文比赛将为他们提供一个机会，介绍他们的研究活动，并听取来自不同国家的领先专家的建议。计划将在三种技术期刊上发表选定的论文。

CBET - 1322172Yinlun HuangSustainability science and engineering has become a very active area of research in various disciplines of engineering, natural and social sciences. Sustainability theories and sustainability assessment, analysis, design and decision making methodologies as well as tools have been developed, many of which are used to tackle real-world problems in collaboration with industries. The Third International Congress on Sustainability Science and Engineering will address broader issues of sustainability science and engineering, facilitate discussions on scientific and technological development, and share research and practice experiences in industrial sustainability, a group of scientists, educators, and engineers, and governmental officers. The congress will be held in Cincinnati, Ohio, August 11-15, 2013.The travel support to the US academic researchers, educators, and students should help them learn the cutting-age research in various fields of sustainability, share their experience with the world-class leaders and other colleagues, and identify international collaboration opportunities in strengthening sustainable engineering research and education. Junior faculty members, young researchers, graduate and undergraduate students, especially those minorities underrepresented in science and engineering will be strongly encouraged to participate. Student poster paper competitions will provide an opportunity for them to present their research activities and receive advice from leading experts from different countries. It is planned that selected papers will be published in three technical journals.
