This award provides partial support for a summer school that will provide an intensive and interactive educational experience to graduate students who are interested in studying decision making in the context of engineering design and systems engineering. It is specifically intended to provide educational opportunities for students from graduate programs that do not have appropriate coursework in this area. The summer school will cover theoretical and practical issues. It will provide students with foundational understanding about how to conduct research about decision making in design and systems engineering, create a network of peers who are studying these issues, and advance community research standards. It is anticipated that the summer school will have a broad impact in the research community, including other NSF-supported research projects, by advancing training and standards in this area of research. Travel and participation scholarships will serve to ensure a broad participation that maximizes community impact.The summer school will be held during the week of June 18-22, 2018 at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles, CA. Experts from the community will provide instruction and experiential insights on topics that include topics such as probability theory, utility theory, and research methodology. The workshop will combine lectures, in-classroom discussions, out-of-classroom exercises, and student-led research topic discussions. Invited speakers will discuss theoretical and practical considerations as well as future directions in the research area. Scheduled social events will enable students to develop their networking skills. A survey of summer school participants will be conducted to provide information about success and can inform similar efforts on other topic areas within the engineering design and systems engineering research communities.

该奖项为暑期学校提供部分支持，该暑期学校将为有兴趣在工程设计和系统工程背景下学习决策的研究生提供密集和互动的教育体验。它是专门为研究生项目的学生提供教育机会，这些学生在这方面没有适当的课程。暑期学校将涵盖理论和实践问题。它将为学生提供关于如何在设计和系统工程中进行决策研究的基本理解，创建一个研究这些问题的同行网络，并推进社区研究标准。预计暑期学校将对研究界产生广泛的影响，包括其他nsf支持的研究项目，通过提高这一研究领域的培训和标准。旅行和参与奖学金将有助于确保广泛参与，最大限度地发挥社区影响。暑期学校将于2018年6月18日至22日在加州洛杉矶的南加州大学举行。来自社区的专家将提供关于主题的指导和经验见解，包括概率论、效用理论和研究方法等主题。研讨会将结合讲座、课堂讨论、课外练习和学生主导的研究课题讨论。受邀演讲者将讨论理论和实践考虑以及未来的研究方向。预定的社交活动将使学生发展他们的社交技能。将对暑期学校的参与者进行调查，以提供有关成功的信息，并可以为工程设计和系统工程研究社区中其他主题领域的类似努力提供信息。
