This award from the CBET Environmental Engineering program with co-funding from the CBET Environmental Sustainability and the EEC Broadening Participation in Engineering programs supports the 2021 Association of Environmental Engineering and Science Professors (AEESP) Research and Education Conference. The theme of the conference is “Environmental Engineering and Science at the Confluence”. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 AEESP Research and Education Conference was restructured around two events: 1) a virtual conference to be held on July 13-14, 2021 and 2) an in-person conference to be held on June 28-30, 2022 in St. Louis. The AEESP 2021 virtual conference will feature various workshops and training events for environmental engineers/scientists at various stages of their careers including 1) an NSF CAREER proposal writing workshop for junior faculty, 2) a workshop on DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) to summarize and discuss the lessons learned from a series of webinars on “Converging COVID-19, environment, health, and equity” funded by the NSF CBET Environmental Engineering program, and 3) a technical workshop on aerosol science/engineering and public health with a focus on the COVID-19 pandemic. The AEESP 2022 in-person conference will also feature various workshops and training events organized around four areas of convergence: convergence of education and research, convergence of research in air, water, and soil, convergence of research and action, and convergence of research, practice, and entrepreneurship. Both the virtual and in-person AEESP conferences will provide numerous opportunities for the participants to exchange ideas and build new partnerships. The 2021/2022 AEESP Research and Education Conferences will be hosted by a group of academic institutions including Washington University in St. Louis (Lead Institution), Missouri University of Science & Technology, Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, and the University of Missouri-Columbia. The biannual AEESP Research and Education Conference is the premier event for AEESP members to exchange information on novel research, educational activities, and develop professional competencies. Key goals of the 2021/2022 AEESP conferences are to empower current and future environmental engineering and science (EES) professors to pursue the relevant “NSF Big Ideas”, catalyze convergence research and provide a forum for new perspectives and collaborations that will allow environmental engineers/scientists to apply their expertise and skills to address global and emerging societal Grand Challenges such as pandemic preparedness/prevention and climate change mitigation/adaptation. Both the 2021 virtual and 2022 in-person AEESP conferences seek to 1) broaden the participation of members of underrepresented groups in environmental engineering and science research and education; 2) empower the EES academic community to combat systemic racism; and 3) highlight research progress and identify new priority research directions. The 2021/2022 AEESP conferences will also provide speaking and networking opportunities for undergraduate/graduate students, and postdoctoral research fellows to inform the EES community of their research. Junior and prospective faculty members attending the conference will benefit from workshops devoted to NSF CAREER proposal writing, navigating the academic job search, and mentorship to broaden the participation of the EES community in NSF and federally-funded research.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.

CBET环境工程计划的奖项授予CBET环境可持续性的共同资助以及EEC扩大工程计划的参与支持2021年环境工程与科学教授协会（AEESP）研究与教育会议。会议的主题是“汇合处的环境工程和科学”。由于持续的共同19日大流行，2021年AEESP研究和教育会议围绕两个事件进行了恢复：1）将于7月13日至14日，2021年和2021年和2）举行的虚拟会议将于2022年6月28日至30日在圣路易斯举行。 The AEESP 2021 virtual conference will feature various workshops and training events for environmental engineers/scientists at various stages of their careers including 1) an NSF CAREER proposal writing workshop for junior faculty, 2) a workshop on DEI (Diversity, Equity and Inclusion) to summarize and discuss the lessons learned from a series of webinars on “Converging COVID-19, environment, health, and equity” funded by the NSF CBET环境工程计划，以及3）关于气溶胶科学/工程和公共卫生的技术研讨会，重点是COVID-19大流行。 AEESP 2022面对面会议还将举办各种研讨会和培训活动，围绕四个方面的融合：教育和研究的融合，空气，水和土壤研究的融合，研究和行动的融合以及研究，实践和实践和企业家的融合。虚拟和面对面的AEESP会议都将为参与者提供许多交换想法和建立新伙伴关系的机会。 2021/2022 AEESP研究和教育会议将由包括圣路易斯华盛顿大学（主要机构），密苏里州科学技术大学，南伊利诺伊大学爱德华兹维尔和密苏里州科罗利群岛的一组学术机构主持。双年度AEESP研究和教育会议是AEESP成员交换有关新型研究，教育活动和发展专业能力的信息的首要活动。 2021/2022 AEESP会议的主要目标是赋予当前和未来的环境工程与科学（EES）教授追求相关的“ NSF大思想”，催化融合研究，并为新的观点和协作提供论坛，以使环境工程师/科学家将其专业和诸如社交范围的社交挑战范围化，以使环境工程师适用于环境工程师，以使其允许全球和社交挑战范围内的挑战，缓解/适应。 2021年虚拟和2022年面对面的AEESP会议都试图1）扩大代表性不足的团体参与环境工程和科学研究和教育； 2）使EES学术界有能力打击系统性种族主义； 3）突出研究进度并确定新的优先研究方向。 2021/2022 AEESP会议还将为本科/研究生提供语言和网络机会，以及博士后研究人员，以告知EES社区的研究。 Junior and prospective faculty members attending the conference will benefit from workshops devoted to NSF CAREER proposal writing, navigating the academic job search, and mentality to broaden the participation of the EES community in NSF and federally-funded research.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.
