The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE), in collaboration with the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC), is conducting a grantees meeting to convene principal investigators (PIs) from the Computer and Information Science and Engineering Minority-Serving Institutions (CISE-MSI) Research Expansion Program. The meeting provides an opportunity for participants to share ongoing/formative experiences about their project, with a focus on creating opportunities to disseminate promising practices and engage in collaborative problem-solving around shared challenges. Specifically, the meetings: a) provide the opportunity for grantees and other researchers to interact directly with one another and NSF representatives—in turn, increasing knowledge, generating and sharing ideas; b) strengthen professional networks and collaborative relationships; and c) share lessons learned with emerging researchers who plan to submit a new CISE-MSI solicitation proposal in the next two years. The project builds on practice in community-building, particularly among faculty researchers at MSIs, who share a common focus on diversity and inclusion. The project takes advantage of the proximity of Tribal College and University faculty to the in-person meeting venue, providing an opportunity to engage faculty interested in participating in an upcoming round of CISE-MSI funding.The project goals are threefold: 1) host an in-person 2.5-day Grantees Meeting inviting all current CISE-MSI PI Team Grantees to participate in plenary sessions, information gathering/sharing, mentoring and community building; 2) facilitate a virtual 5-week Proposal Development Workshop providing aspiring CISE-MSI research teams with instruction, writing labs, and expert feedback on the development of key components of their proposals (e.g., project description, budget/budget justification, and project summary); and 3) deploy a Mentoring Program so that each aspiring CISE-MSI research team is matched with experienced coaching to support their progress throughout the program. A key outcome of the meetings is a multi-stakeholder agenda that addresses current issues facing engineering—ultimately, advancing knowledge in a variety of engineering fields by providing forums for MSI CISE awardees and stakeholders to learn, explore, and share ideas that promote innovation in education, research, and practice and produce transformational engineered systems and engineering graduates adept at technological innovation and leadership. Results of the meetings include establishing the groundwork for a community of practice where PIs from Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions (HSIs), Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs) and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions (ANNHs) can collectively further their respective program goals as well as the broader goals of the CISE-MSI program.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）与美国印第安人高等教育联盟（AIHEC）合作，正在举行一次受赠人会议，召集来自计算机和信息科学与工程少数民族服务机构（CISE-MSI）研究扩展计划的主要研究人员（PI）。会议为与会者提供了一个机会，分享有关其项目的持续/形成经验，重点是创造机会，传播有前途的做法，并围绕共同的挑战合作解决问题。具体而言，会议：a）为受资助者和其他研究人员提供直接与彼此和NSF代表互动的机会，从而增加知识，产生和分享想法; B）加强专业网络和合作关系; c）与计划在未来两年内提交新的CISE-MSI征集提案的新兴研究人员分享经验教训。该项目建立在社区建设实践的基础上，特别是在MSIs的教师研究人员中，他们共同关注多样性和包容性。该项目利用了部落学院和大学教师的近距离的人的会议场地，提供了一个机会，让有兴趣参加即将到来的一轮CISE-MSI资金的教师。该项目的目标有三个方面：1）举办一个人2.5天的受助人会议，邀请所有当前的CISE-MSI PI团队受助人参加全体会议，信息收集/分享，指导和社区建设; 2）促进虚拟的5周提案开发研讨会，为有抱负的CISE-MSI研究团队提供指导，写作实验室，以及关于其提案关键组成部分开发的专家反馈（例如，项目描述，预算/预算理由和项目摘要）;和3）部署一个指导计划，使每个有抱负的CISE-MSI研究团队与经验丰富的教练相匹配，以支持他们在整个计划中的进展。会议的一个关键成果是一个多利益相关者的议程，解决当前面临的工程问题，最终，通过为MSI CISE获奖者和利益相关者提供论坛，学习，探索和分享促进教育，研究和实践创新的想法，并产生善于技术创新和领导的转型工程系统和工程毕业生，在各种工程领域推进知识。会议的成果包括为实践社区奠定基础，来自历史上黑人学院和大学（HBCU）、西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）、部落学院和大学（TCU）和阿拉斯加土著和夏威夷土著服务机构（ANNHs）可以共同推进各自的计划目标以及CISE的更广泛的目标，MSI计划。该奖项反映了NSF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。
