Conference Increasing Participation Competitiveness Minority

项目摘要

The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) will host a conference with the goal of helping Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) increase their competitiveness to obtain public research funds, ultimately contributing to the growth of a more capable and diverse research workforce. Serving high proportions of nontraditional students and students of color, MSIs increase workforce readiness and contribute to increased representation of these underserved groups in post-baccalaureate pathways. The conference will be held in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area in fall 2019, hosting approximately 120 representatives from MSIs across the nation. The conference program will focus on (a) increasing awareness about funding opportunities within the computer and information science and engineering domain (an area of ever-increasing economic and social impact); and (b) cultivating professional relationships, collaborations, and partnerships among conference participants. ASEE staff will consult a three-member planning committee, representing different MSI types, to plan and organize the conference. The conference program will include plenary talks, breakout sessions, and networking sessions. The interactive components of the conference will be designed and structured to emphasize collaboration and to maximize cross-pollination among participants. Conference participants will provide feedback through an online survey, distributed via email immediately following the conference. ASEE will produce a written summary of the meeting that includes summaries of the plenary talks, summary analyses of relevant breakout session discussions, and results from the post-conference survey. The conference is intended to result in emerging collaborations and partnerships among MSIs that support the development and submission of competitive research proposals to computer and information science and engineering programs.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.

美国工程教育学会（ASEE）将举办一次会议，目的是帮助少数派服务机构（MSIS）提高其获得公共研究资金的竞争力，最终为更加有能力和多样化的研究人员的成长做出了贡献。 MSI为高比例的非传统学生和有色人种提供服务，增加了劳动力准备，并有助于增加这些服务不足的群体在后洞穴后途径中的代表性。该会议将于2019年秋季在华盛顿特区大都会地区举行，在全国各地的MSIS拥有约120名代表。会议计划将重点介绍（a）对计算机和信息科学和工程领域（不断增强经济和社会影响的领域）中对资金机会的认识的提高；（b）会议参与者之间建立专业关系，合作和伙伴关系。 ASEE工作人员将咨询一个由不同的MSI类型的成员组成的计划委员会，以计划和组织会议。会议计划将包括全体会议，突破会议和网络会议。会议的互动组件将经过设计和结构，以强调协作并最大程度地提高参与者之间的交叉授粉。会议参与者将通过在线调查提供反馈，并在会议结束后通过电子邮件分发。 ASEE将进行会议的书面摘要，其中包括全体会谈的摘要，相关突破性会议讨论的摘要分析以及会议后调查的结果。该会议旨在导致MSI之间的新兴合作和合作伙伴关系，以支持对计算机和信息科学与工程计划的发展和提交竞争性的研究建议。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影响的审查标准来通过评估来支持的。
