Huang, 1533966Over the past two decades, industries have made tremendous efforts to improve energy and material efficiency in engineered systems, design greener products and sustainable supply chain, and become more responsible to the society through improving their business sustainability. In academia, sustainability 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. To improve communications and promote experience sharing, networking, and collaboration between academia and industries, a variety of sustainability related conferences, symposiums, and workshops are organized around the world every year. To address much 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 have decided to organize the fourth event of a conference series, namely The 4th International Congress on Sustainability Science and Engineering (ICOSSE). The conference will be held in Balatonfüred, Hungary on May 26-29, 2015.This is the first time for the ICOSSE series to organize an event in a foreign country. This conference should provide an excellent platform for scientist, researchers, and practitioners of various physical sciences, engineering fields, economics, and social sciences to discuss research and education challenges, share their research and practicing experience, and promote networking. The conference will be organized on four key themes in sustainability; they are: sustainable energy, sustainable manufacturing, energy for sustainability, and the nexus of food, energy, and water. The presentation focus will be on pursuing industrial sustainability from the systems perspective using scientific and engineering innovations. The conference should help bridge the gap between research and development and strengthen the linkage between industries and academia, and explore opportunities for broad international collaboration.The ICOSSE becomes a major international conference series in the sustainability field. Different from the past three ICOSSEs, this 4th event is to be held in Europe. The travel grant should help US academic attendees take this opportunity to learn the cutting-age research in various fields of sustainability, share their experience with the world class leaders and other colleagues, especially those in Europe and near regions, 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 attend the conference. Student poster paper competitions will provide a great 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 five technical journals.

Huang，1533966在过去的二十年中，行业付出了巨大的努力，以提高工程系统的能源和材料效率，设计绿色产品和可持续供应链，并通过改善其业务可持续性对社会负责。在学术界，可持续性科学和工程已经成为工程，自然和社会科学各个学科的研究领域。已经开发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，其中许多用于解决与行业合作的现实世界问题。为了改善学术界与行业之间的沟通并促进经验共享，网络和协作，每年在世界各地组织各种可持续性会议，研讨会和研讨会。为了解决可持续性科学和工程学的更广泛的问题，促进了有关科学和技术发展的讨论，并分享了工业可持续性方面的研究和实践经验，一组科学家，教育工作者和工程师，政府官员决定组织第四次会议系列活动，name是第四届国际可持续性科学和工程学国际大会（ICOSSE）。该会议将于2015年5月26日至29日在匈牙利的Balatonfüred举行。这是ICOSSE系列首次在国外组织活动。这次会议应该为各种物理科学，工程领域，经济学和社会科学的科学家，研究人员和从业人员提供一个绝佳的平台，以讨论研究和教育挑战，分享他们的研究和实践经验以及促进网络。会议将以可持续性的四个关键主题组织；它们是：可持续能源，可持续制造，可持续性的能源以及食物，能源和水的下一个。演讲重点将是从系统角度利用科学和工程创新来追求工业可持续性。会议应有助于弥合研发与发展之间的差距，并加强行业与学术界之间的联系，并探索广泛的国际合作机会。ICOSSE成为可持续发展领域的主要国际会议系列。与过去的三个图标不同，第四次活动​​将在欧洲举行。旅行赠款应帮助我们借此机会学习在可持续性的各个领域的秘密研究，与世界一流的领导人和其他同事（尤其是欧洲和附近地区的人）分享他们的经验，并确定国际合作的机会，以加强可持续工程研究和教育。强烈鼓励初级教师，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的人数不足的少数群体参加会议。学生海报纸竞赛将为他们提供一个很好的机会，可以介绍他们的研究活动，并从不同国家的领先专家那里获得建议。计划在五个技术期刊上发表精选论文。
