The Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) Symposia, organized by the National Academy of Engineering, provide emerging engineering leaders from academia, industry, and government laboratories the opportunity to share research insights to facilitate an interdisciplinary transfer of knowledge and research methodologies. The nature of emerging technologies and how they fit together to create products and processes that drive economic growth in an increasingly competitive environment have heightened the need for engineers to understand each other's disciplines and enhance the value in that interaction, particularly among those developing and using these new technologies. The symposia serve as a catalyst to spur engineering innovation and foster collaborative networks of researchers within the United States and between engineers from the United States and partnering countries. This award provides partial support for three Frontiers of Engineering (FOE) symposia, to be held in 2015: German-American Frontiers of Engineering (April 16-18, in Potsdam, Germany), China-America Frontiers of Engineering (June 1-3, in Irvine, California), and U.S. Frontiers of Engineering (September 9-11, in Irvine, California). Each FOE symposium will focus on four topical areas. The four topics for the 2015 German-American FOE are nano-to-micro robotics, synthetic membranes and their applications, particle accelerators and their applications, and protecting user privacy in the age of big data. The four topics for the 2015 China-America FOE are advanced manufacturing, clean water, devices for health care, and big data. Finally, the four topics for the U.S. symposium are metamaterials and compliant mechanisms, cybersecurity, engineering the search for earth-like exoplanets, and forecasting natural disasters. About 100 outstanding young engineers for the U.S. symposium and 30 from each country for the bilateral symposia will participate. Each two and one-half day symposium will include four formal sessions, technical tours, break-out sessions, and opportunities for developing collaborative research partnerships. Sessions will consist of presentations on cutting-edge research, innovations, and emerging research opportunities in engineering fields relevant to the symposium. Papers from the U.S. FOE symposium will be published in a volume available on the National Academies Press website at http://www.nap.edu.

由美国国家工程院组织的工程前沿(FOE)研讨会为来自学术界、工业界和政府实验室的新兴工程领导者提供了分享研究见解的机会，以促进知识和研究方法的跨学科转移。新兴技术的性质以及它们如何结合在一起，在竞争日益激烈的环境中创造出推动经济增长的产品和流程，这使得工程师们更加需要了解彼此的学科，并在这种互动中提高价值，特别是在开发和使用这些新技术的人之间。这些研讨会起到了催化剂的作用，刺激了工程创新，并促进了美国国内以及美国工程师和合作国家之间的研究人员之间的合作网络。该奖项为将于2015年举办的三个工程前沿(FOE)研讨会提供部分支持：德美工程前沿(4月16日至18日，德国波茨坦)、中国-美国工程前沿(6月1日至3日，加利福尼亚州欧文)和美国工程前沿(9月9日至11日，加利福尼亚州欧文)。每一次FOE研讨会都将聚焦于四个主题领域。2015年德美对手的四个主题是纳米到微型机器人、合成膜及其应用、粒子加速器及其应用，以及在大数据时代保护用户隐私。2015年中国-美国之敌的四个主题是先进制造、清洁水、医疗保健设备和大数据。最后，美国研讨会的四个主题是超材料和顺应机制，网络安全，寻找类地系外行星的工程，以及自然灾害预测。参加美国研讨会的约100名优秀青年工程师，参加双边研讨会的每个国家约30名。每个为期两天半的研讨会将包括四个正式会议、技术参观、分组会议和发展合作研究伙伴关系的机会。会议将包括与研讨会相关的工程领域的前沿研究、创新和新出现的研究机会的演讲。来自美国FOE研讨会的论文将以卷的形式发表在美国国家科学院出版社的网站上，网址为http://www.nap.edu.
