This award supports the organization of a National Science Foundation Directorate for Engineering Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) Proposal Writing Workshop. The workshop will be held in Arlington, Virginia on April 1-2, 2019, and it is expected that there will be about 300 attendees. The workshop will take place over one-and-a-half days and will include interactive sessions on good proposal writing practices, seminars by previous CAREER awardees, a mock CAREER proposal panel review, and a review session during which the attendees will have a chance to obtain feedback on project summaries of their own draft CAREER proposals. The attendees will also have an opportunity to interact with current NSF Program Directors both in one-on-one and in mock panel sessions. This workshop will help to prepare CAREER program eligible faculty for careers in education and research by giving them tools and skills of good proposal writing for submissions to the CAREER program as well as core NSF programs. The objectives of the workshop include training for junior faculty with an emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities in engineering. A special additional emphasis will be placed on encouraging CAREER program eligible faculty from non-"Research-1" institutions to apply for participation. The workshop will serve as an introduction NSF for many new researchers. The workshop will help participants to clarify their research and education career plans and to understand the need to clearly articulate these plans to external reviewers. In addition, the workshop includes mock panel sessions to give participants the experience of simulated panel evaluation discussions. All of the content and experiences will help attendees enrich their skills of writing successful research proposals for impactful research that benefits societal needs.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.

该奖项支持国家科学基金会工程学院早期职业发展计划（CAREER）提案写作研讨会的组织。研讨会将于2019年4月1日至2日在弗吉尼亚州阿灵顿举行，预计将有约300名与会者。该研讨会将持续一天半，将包括关于良好提案写作实践的互动会议，以前的CAREER获奖者的研讨会，模拟CAREER提案小组审查，以及审查会议，在此期间，与会者将有机会获得对他们自己的CAREER提案草案的项目摘要的反馈。与会者还将有机会与当前的NSF计划主任进行一对一和模拟小组会议的互动。这个研讨会将有助于准备职业生涯计划合格的教师在教育和研究的职业生涯，给他们的工具和技能，良好的提案写作提交给职业生涯计划以及核心NSF计划。讲习班的目标包括培训初级教员，重点是妇女和工程学中代表性不足的少数群体。一个特别的额外重点将放在鼓励职业计划合格的教师从非“研究-1”机构申请参与。该研讨会将作为一个介绍NSF为许多新的研究人员。研讨会将帮助与会者澄清他们的研究和教育职业计划，并了解需要明确阐述这些计划的外部审查。此外，讲习班还包括模拟小组会议，让参加者体验模拟小组评价讨论。所有的内容和经验将帮助与会者丰富他们撰写成功的研究提案的技能，以进行有益于社会需求的有影响力的研究。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
