The purpose of this award is to provide partial travel support for 50 graduate and undergraduate students to attend the premier American Society of Mechanical Engineers event, the International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition to be held on November 9-15, 2018 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The students will participate in a poster symposium to present their research projects to the broader mechanical engineering community. The students will be from a pool of candidates that are being funded through the Directorate for Engineering (ENG) or Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) programs at the National Science Foundation. The students will be selected based on an application that will include a brief resume, a one-page statement of why they want to attend the conference, and a statement of support from their faculty advisor. Consideration in the selection process will be given to include members of underrepresented groups and diversity of institutions. This participation support is expected to benefit students' professional, scientific and technical development as they present their NSF funded research projects to the broader mechanical engineering community. Attendance at the conference will provide the students an opportunity to learn about the engineering profession and state-of-the-art research via access to approximately 2000 technical and professional development talks by domestic and international speakers. Students will enhance their communication skills through discussions of their work with the top researchers in their fields during the society-wide poster symposium. They will also have the opportunity to attend technical presentations spanning more than 240 topics, join the keynote and plenary sessions featuring technological pioneers, and network with potential mentors, colleagues, and employers. This interactive experience is expected to broaden their education, increase enthusiasm for their research topic, acquaint them with expectations for scientific careers, and expose them to new avenues for innovative research. This award will benefit the nation through the education of a skilled and diverse engineering workforce better prepared to provide transformative solutions to overcome the challenges of their chosen fields.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项的目的是为50名研究生和本科生提供部分旅行支持，以参加2018年11月9日至15日在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡举行的美国总理机械工程师活动，国际机械工程大会和博览会。学生将参加海报研讨会，向更广泛的机械工程社区展示其研究项目。学生将来自国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation）的本科生（REU）计划的工程（ENG）或研究经验的一批候选人。将根据一个申请进行选择，该申请将包括简短的简历，一页关于他们为什么要参加会议的声明以及其教职顾问的支持声明。选择过程中的考虑将包括代表性不足的群体和机构多样性的成员。预计这种参与支持将使学生的专业，科学和技术发展受益，因为他们向更广泛的机械工程社区展示了NSF资助的研究项目。参加会议将为学生提供一个机会，通过访问国内和国际发言人的大约2000个技术和专业发展谈判来了解工程专业和最先进的研究。学生将通过与社会范围内海报研讨会期间与领域的顶级研究人员讨论工作来提高他们的沟通能力。他们还将有机会参加涵盖240多个主题的技术演讲，加入以技术开拓者为主题的主题演讲和全体会议，并与潜在的导师，同事和雇主进行网络。预计这种互动经验将扩大他们的教育，增加对研究主题的热情，使他们对科学职业的期望，并将其暴露于创新研究的新途径。该奖项将通过教育熟练和多样化的工程劳动力来使国家受益，以便更好地为克服所选领域的挑战提供变革性解决方案。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的审查标准通过评估来获得支持的。
