This award supports 35 graduate and undergraduate students studying at US institutions to participate in the World PM 2020 conference sponsored by the Metal Powder Industries Federation. This premier powder metallurgy conference acts as a bridge between industries, government laboratories, and academic institutions. The award provides student participants with opportunities to exchange ideas with leading researchers and engineers from worldwide industrial and governmental facilities, as well as with students and faculty from both domestic and international schools. In addition to nurturing a powder metallurgy community, participants will learn the latest research areas and results in powder metallurgy. Powder metallurgy is a topic with applications in literally every portion of the manufacturing sector in the American economy, and therefore directly impacts economic welfare and national security in the short term by promulgating information, but in the long term by recruiting high-quality engineers and scientists into this field. The workforce needs of powder metallurgy have not been met for decades; with a workforce that will see large retirements in the next few years, recruitment of current graduate students is essential for this industry. This project provides the student participants with opportunities to exchange ideas with leading researchers and engineers from worldwide industrial and governmental facilities, as well as with students and faculty from both domestic and international universities. In addition to nurturing a global powder metallurgy (traditional press & sinter, metal injection molding, isostatic pressing, and metal additive manufacturing) vision, participants will learn the latest research areas and results in the fields of interest. These opportunities will not only improve the participants' knowledge in the field but also develop scientists and engineers who are ideally suited to craft the next generation of designs in powder metallurgy that will push the nation's manufacturing capabilities.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35名在美国院校学习的研究生和本科生参加由金属粉末工业联合会主办的世界粉末冶金2020大会。这次首屈一指的粉末冶金会议在工业、政府实验室和学术机构之间架起了桥梁。该奖项为学生参与者提供了与来自世界各地工业和政府机构的顶尖研究人员和工程师以及来自国内和国际学校的学生和教职员工交流想法的机会。除了培养粉末冶金社区外，参与者还将了解粉末冶金的最新研究领域和成果。粉末冶金是一个在美国经济中制造业的各个领域都有应用的话题，因此在短期内通过传播信息直接影响经济福利和国家安全，但从长远来看，通过招募高素质的工程师和科学家进入该领域。粉末冶金的劳动力需求几十年来一直没有得到满足；由于劳动力将在未来几年大量退休，招聘当前的研究生对该行业至关重要。该项目为学生参与者提供了与来自世界各地工业和政府机构的顶尖研究人员和工程师以及来自国内外大学的学生和教职员工交流思想的机会。除了培养全球粉末冶金(传统粉末冶金、金属注射成型、等静压和金属添加剂制造)的视野外，学员还将学习感兴趣领域的最新研究领域和成果。这些机会不仅将提高参与者在该领域的知识，还将培养非常适合制作下一代粉末冶金设计的科学家和工程师，这些设计将推动国家的制造能力。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
