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.

技术摘要本研讨会的重点是材料科学和工程职业奖获得者在他们的奖项的第三年的专业发展。研讨会的计划将包括导师（著名科学家和教育家）和NSF人员的谈话，以及与导师的小组讨论和互动会议。研讨会的主题将包括创业精神，课堂教学创新，转向新的研究领域，职业生活的平衡，以及NSF的举措和运营。在这些领域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可以提供职业咨询的机会，还可以提供发展有意义和持久关系的机会。该研讨会还将使CAREER获奖者之间的网络，以形成有意义的关系，这可能会导致新的研究合作。本次研讨会的成果预计将提供重要的投入，为增加未来的NSF研讨会在类似category.Non-Technical描述的影响：本次研讨会的目的是帮助职业奖获奖者从事材料科学和工程研究，继续他们的道路，研究和教育的领导。研讨会的主要参与者将是来自材料研究部门的第三年职业奖获得者，以及来自从事材料相关研究的其他部门的第三年职业奖获得者。参与者将获得有关NSF运营，资助优先事项和其他举措的信息，这些信息将使他们更好地促进他们的研究并利用资助机会。此外，与会者将接受著名教授，系主任，和前职业获奖者，沿着与NSF项目主任的指导。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。
