The on-going expansion of research in systems engineering and design makes the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) International Design and Engineering Technical Conferences one of the largest conferences organized by ASME. Every year, many doctoral students and junior faculty attend the conference with the aim of presenting their work and establishing themselves in the community. However, there is a need at these types of conferences to further develop and attract new scholars within the design community. Currently, the main focus of such conferences is on presenting papers, rather than on nurturing advanced doctoral students to successfully transition into design research scholarship positions in academia or in industry. By supporting a career development workshop, this award provides conference participants with information on how to develop a strategic plan for their lifetime and career goals. It will enable graduate students and junior faculty to make a smooth transition into a meaningful career by helping them discover the crucial components of career development and self-representation. In addition, it will increase the enthusiasm of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty toward their future positions, and teach them significant technical skills as well as communication and leadership skills. Finally, the workshop will continue to foster lines of communication for the Design Engineering community at the national level. To ensure the continuity and further development of the design engineering community, an NSF CAREER Proposal Writing Workshop will be held at the 2014 ASME International Design Engineering Technical Conferences. In addition to focusing on career development skills, choices, and practices, this workshop will present information about how to develop an effective "CAREER development grant," bringing together a pool of graduate students and leading faculty investigators interested in becoming independent scholars. The workshop is integrated with the Design for Manufacturing and Life Cycle Technical Conference schedule, and will provide participants the opportunity to meet distinguished researchers and educators from a diverse array of interrelated fields within the design community.

系统工程和设计研究的不断扩展使得美国机械工程师学会（ASME）国际设计与工程技术会议成为ASME组织的最大的会议之一。每年都有许多博士生和初级教师参加会议，目的是展示他们的工作并在社区中建立自己的地位。然而，在这些类型的会议上，有必要进一步发展和吸引设计界的新学者。目前，此类会议的主要焦点是发表论文，而不是培养高级博士生，使其成功地过渡到学术界或工业界的设计研究奖学金职位。通过支持职业发展研讨会，该奖项为会议参与者提供了如何为他们的生活和职业目标制定战略计划的信息。它将使研究生和初级教师通过帮助他们发现职业发展和自我表现的关键组成部分，顺利过渡到有意义的职业。此外，它还将提高研究生、博士后和初级教师对未来职位的热情，并教授他们重要的技术技能以及沟通和领导技能。最后，研讨会将继续在国家层面上促进设计工程界的交流。为确保设计工程界的连续性和进一步发展，2014年ASME国际设计工程技术会议将举办NSF职业计划书写作研讨会。除了关注职业发展技能、选择和实践之外，本次研讨会还将介绍如何制定有效的“职业发展补助金”，将有兴趣成为独立学者的研究生和主要教师调查员聚集在一起。该研讨会与制造设计和生命周期技术会议日程相结合，并将为参与者提供机会，与来自设计界各种相关领域的杰出研究人员和教育工作者会面。
