1539816 (Gaustad). The International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technology (ISSST) attracts participants from multiple disciplines to focus on issues related to sustainability science and engineering. This conference covers a spectrum of issues for assessing and managing products and services across their life cycle, and the design, management, and policy implications of sustainable engineered systems and technologies. The conference has significant participation from students and young faculty members, which is critical for generating the next generation of sustainable solutions. This grant is for funds to help expand the participation of students, underrepresented groups, and junior faculty from across the United States in ISSST 2015.The solution of complex sustainability issues can only be achieved via trans-disciplinary approaches. Cross pollination of ideas among natural scientists, engineers, social scientists, and policy makers is necessary for developing a holistic understanding of sustainability applicable to engineered systems, products, and supply chains and the critical infrastructures on which they depend. ISSST 2015's theme is collaboration and this theme will be advanced with a variety of networking and learning opportunities. By providing opportunities for educational exchange among academics, government, and industry representatives, opportunities will be enhanced for the design and development of sustainable systems and technology. Further, ISSST 2015 is designed to fill key knowledge gaps and broaden the existing sustainability community base to include social and ecological scientists.

1539816（Gaustad）。国际可持续系统与技术研讨会（ISSST）吸引了来自多个学科的参与者，专注于与可持续性科学和工程有关的问题。该会议涵盖了一系列问题，用于评估和管理其生命周期的产品和服务，以及可持续工程系统和技术的设计，管理和政策含义。该会议的学生和年轻教职员工的参与度很大，这对于产生下一代可持续解决方案至关重要。这笔赠款是为了帮助扩大美国ISSST 2015年美国各地的学生，代表性不足的团体和初级教师的参与。解决复杂可持续性问题的解决方案只能通过跨学科方法来实现。自然科学家，工程师，社会科学家和政策制定者之间思想的交叉授粉对于对适用于工程系统，产品和供应链以及其依赖的关键基础设施的可持续性的整体理解是必要的。 ISSST 2015的主题是协作，该主题将获得各种网络和学习机会。通过为学者，政府和行业代表之间的教育交流提供机会，可为可持续系统和技术的设计和开发增强机会。此外，ISSST 2015旨在填补关键知识空白，并扩大现有的可持续发展社区基础，包括社会和生态科学家。
