The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) will conduct a three-day virtual proposal writing workshop for up to 1,000 early career engineering faculty to increase their capacity to formulate and submit competitive Faculty Early Career Development (CAREER) Program proposals to the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Directorate for Engineering (ENG). This award seeks to broaden participation by increasing competitive proposals from investigators who are more diverse in terms of being from underrepresented groups in engineering and institution types, particularly institutions that may not have sufficient resources to support faculty in CAREER proposal development (e.g., institutions in EPSCoR states, non-R1 institutions, and Minority-Serving Institutions). Through an interactive three-day virtual workshop, this award will provide participants with (a) foundational knowledge on the key objectives and features of the CAREER Program; (b) an increased understanding of the proposal review and selection process; and (c) proposal writing strategies to enable them to formulate more competitive CAREER proposals for submission to the NSF Directorate for Engineering. The workshop will include a mock panel review session during which up to 300 participants will serve as reviewers on a mock panel and review a set of CAREER proposals. ASEE is strongly positioned to support and connect the early-career engineering faculty community to expand their participation in the NSF CAREER Program, leveraging its reach and influence to accelerate innovation, dissemination, and adoption of best practices in research, instruction, and diversity and inclusion. This award will encourage broader participation in NSF-sponsored research by helping junior faculty from underrepresented groups and under-participating institutions to compete more effectively for the NSF CAREER award, activating a larger portion of the nation’s science and engineering talent.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.

美国工程教育协会（ASEE）将为多达1000名早期职业工程教师举办为期三天的虚拟提案写作研讨会，以提高他们制定和向国家科学基金会（NSF）工程理事会（ENG）提交有竞争力的教师早期职业发展（career）计划提案的能力。该奖项旨在通过增加研究人员的竞争性提案来扩大参与范围，这些研究人员来自工程和机构类型中代表性不足的群体，特别是那些可能没有足够资源支持教师进行职业提案开发的机构（例如，EPSCoR州的机构，非r1机构和少数民族服务机构）。通过为期三天的互动虚拟研讨会，该奖项将为参与者提供(a)关于职业生涯计划的主要目标和特点的基础知识；(b)加深对建议书评审及甄选程序的了解；以及(c)建议写作策略，使他们能够制定更具竞争力的职业建议，提交给国家科学基金会工程局。研讨会将包括一个模拟小组审查会议，在此期间，多达300名参与者将作为模拟小组的审稿人，并审查一系列CAREER提案。ASEE将大力支持和连接早期职业工程教师社区，以扩大他们对NSF职业计划的参与，利用其影响力和影响力来加速创新，传播和采用研究，教学，多样性和包容性方面的最佳实践。该奖项将鼓励更广泛地参与NSF资助的研究，帮助来自代表性不足的群体和参与不足的机构的初级教师更有效地竞争NSF CAREER奖，从而激活美国更大一部分的科学和工程人才。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
