The Historically Black Colleges and Universities - Undergraduate Program (HBCU-UP) supports conferences and workshops that seek to increase the research and education capacity of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) students and faculty at HBCUs. Morgan State University will organize a student symposium held in conjunction with the 92nd National Technical Association (NTA) Annual Conference to be held on September 23-26, 2020, hosted virtually by Clark Atlanta University. Undergraduate students from HBCUs will virtually participate in the one-day student symposium to present their research and build a network of support by interacting with faculty and industry representatives, as well as fully participate in the conference. The NTA, established in 1926, promotes the involvement of undergraduate students in scientific and technical research activities. The symposium sessions will provide a culminating experience for approximately one hundred students to disseminate research results to peers and professionals attending the NTA conference through oral and poster sessions. Students will have a chance to enhance their communication skills and receive critical feedback related to their academic work and potential careers. A key objective is to provide undergraduate students the opportunity to network with scientists and engineers from academia, industry, government agencies, and the private sector. Although the COVID19 virus is a high priority topic, preparing and growing the future STEM workforce is at the core of the NTA mission and the agenda will also include topics in the geosciences, as well as topics in big data, artificial intelligence, robotics, and other emerging technologies.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.

历史上黑人学院和大学 - 本科生计划 (HBCU-UP) 支持会议和研讨会，旨在提高 HBCU 科学、技术、工程和数学 (STEM) 学生和教师的研究和教育能力。摩根州立大学将于 2020 年 9 月 23 日至 26 日举办第 92 届全国技术协会 (NTA) 年会，同时组织一次学生研讨会，会议由克拉克亚特兰大大学虚拟主办。 HBCU 的本科生将虚拟参加为期一天的学生研讨会，展示他们的研究成果，通过与教师和行业代表互动建立支持网络，并全面参与会议。 NTA成立于1926年，致力于促进本科生参与科学技术研究活动。研讨会会议将为大约一百名学生提供终极体验，通过口头和海报会议向参加 NTA 会议的同行和专业人士传播研究成果。学生将有机会提高他们的沟通技巧，并获得与其学术工作和潜在职业相关的重要反馈。一个关键目标是为本科生提供与学术界、工业界、政府机构和私营部门的科学家和工程师建立联系的机会。尽管新冠病毒是一个高度优先的主题，但准备和培养未来的 STEM 劳动力是 NTA 使命的核心，议程还将包括地球科学主题，以及大数据、人工智能、机器人和其他新兴技术主题。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评估进行评估，被认为值得支持。 影响审查标准。
