TECHNICAL ABSTRACTThis workshop focuses on the professional development of materials science and engineering CAREER awardees in the third year of their award. The workshop programming will consist of a combination of talks from mentors (renowned scientists and educators) and NSF personnel, as well as panel discussions and interactive sessions with mentors. Workshop topics will include entrepreneurship, innovations in classroom teaching, pivoting to new research areas, career-life balance, and NSF initiatives and operations. Research scientists with experience and success in these areas will serve as speakers, panelists, and mentors. Establishing connections with these role models will not only provide an opportunity for career advice, but also provide opportunities to develop meaningful and sustained relationships. This workshop will also enable CAREER awardees to network amongst themselves to form meaningful relationships, which may lead to new research collaborations. The outcomes of this workshop are expected to provide important input for increasing the impact of future NSF workshops in a similar category.NON-TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:The objective of this workshop is to assist CAREER awardees engaged in materials science and engineering research in continuing their paths to research and education leadership. The primary workshop participants will be third-year CAREER awardees from the Division of Materials Research as well as third-year CAREER awardees from other divisions who engage in materials-related research. The participants will be provided information about NSF operations, funding priorities, and other initiatives that will better position them to promote their research and take advantage of funding opportunities. Additionally, the participants will receive mentoring from renowned professors, department chairs, and former CAREER awardees, along with NSF program directors. This workshop will take place on June 17-18, 2013 at NSF headquarters in Arlington, VA.

技术摘要这一研讨会重点介绍了奖励的第三年材料科学和工程职业获奖者的专业发展。研讨会编程将包括来自导师（著名的科学家和教育者）和NSF人员的演讲，以及与导师的小组讨论和互动会议。研讨会主题将包括创业，课堂教学中的创新，转向新的研究领域，职业生活平衡以及NSF计划和运营。在这些领域具有经验和成功的研究科学家将担任演讲者，小组成员和导师。与这些榜样建立联系不仅将为职业建议提供机会，而且还提供了建立有意义和持续关系的机会。该研讨会还将使职业获奖者能够相互联系以建立有意义的关系，这可能会导致新的研究合作。预计该研讨会的结果将提供重要的意见，以增加类似类别的未来NSF研讨会的影响。非技术描述：该研讨会的目的是协助从事材料科学和工程研究的职业获奖者，以继续他们的研究和教育领导力。主要的研讨会参与者将是材料研究部的三年级职业获奖者，以及其他从事与材料相关研究的部门的三年级职业获奖者。将为参与者提供有关NSF运营，资金优先事项以及其他计划的信息，以更好地定位他们以促进他们的研究并利用资金机会。此外，参与者将从著名的教授，系主任和以前的职业获奖者以及NSF计划主任那里获得指导。该研讨会将于2013年6月17日至18日在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿的NSF总部举行。
