Engineering Deans Forum Broadening Participation

项目摘要

The nations economy, well-being and security are linked to engineering-driven innovation and the future of engineering is inextricably linked to broadening participation in the field. As stewards of the profession, Deans of engineering are acutely aware of these linkages and uniquely positioned to provide leadership in the development of a diverse cadre of engineers who are innovators, leaders and problem-solvers. In particular, as a group, the engineering deans serving on the NSF Directorate for Engineering Advisory Committee, AdCom serve as intermediaries between NSF and the broader engineering community and help guide investments in engineering research and education. The Engineering Deans Forum on Broadening Participation anchored by the Engineering AdCom Deans as a backbone organization within a collective impact framework, serves as a national network for sharing and disseminating, convening, and building partnerships toward the training and preparation of a diverse engineering workforce. The goals of the Forum are to 1) increase the percentage of underrepresented groups in engineering, 2) achieve diversity and inclusion in engineering research and education, and 3) provide an ongoing mechanism to achieve the aforementioned goals. Through its activities, the Engineering Deans Forum guides the development and implementation of innovative approaches to diversity and inclusion and helps bring evidence-based practices to scale across institutions leading to a diverse and agile engineering workforce representing the full range of talent in the country.

国家的经济、福祉和安全与工程驱动的创新息息相关，工程的未来与扩大该领域的参与密不可分。作为该行业的管家，工程系主任敏锐地意识到这些联系，并具有独特的地位，能够领导创新者，领导者和问题解决者的多样化工程师队伍的发展。特别是，作为一个团体，工程系主任服务于NSF董事会工程咨询委员会，AdCom作为NSF和更广泛的工程界之间的中介，并帮助指导工程研究和教育的投资。由工程AdCom院长作为集体影响框架内的骨干组织锚定的工程院长扩大参与论坛，作为一个国家网络，用于分享和传播，召集和建立伙伴关系，以培训和准备多元化的工程队伍。该论坛的目标是：1）增加工程中代表性不足的群体的百分比，2）实现工程研究和教育的多样性和包容性，以及3）提供实现上述目标的持续机制。通过其活动，工程系主任论坛指导多样性和包容性创新方法的开发和实施，并帮助将基于证据的实践扩展到各个机构，从而形成代表该国全方位人才的多样化和敏捷的工程队伍。
