NSERC CREATE for Building Trust in Connected Autonomous Vehicles

这一建立互联和自动驾驶车辆信任的工业流创建计划(CAV)将吸引、留住和培训加拿大CAV的领导者，并应对与CAV相关的技术和社会挑战。CAV被设想为提高运输效率，减少事故，改善安全性，并提供巨大的机动性和环境效益。尽管CAV具有潜在的前景，但在它们广泛部署到智能交通系统之前，仍有重大挑战需要解决。最近，发生了几起涉及骑士队的致命事故。2019年，加拿大交通部发现了Cavs在监管、安全、安保、隐私和政策制定和培训方面的差距。加拿大工程师强调，CAVS是一项重要的新兴技术，需要新的技能，并强调支持有偿后中级工程合作安置的重要性。这项CREATE计划将通过培训一批具有与骑士队相关的必要技术知识的高素质HQP，并帮助他们掌握成功过渡到工作场所的专业技能，以及通过行业和政府组织的实习使受训者接触到真正的骑士队和全天候的L5考试赛道，从而特别帮助解决这一迫在眉睫的技能短缺问题。

This Industrial Stream CREATE program for Building Trust in Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) will attract, retain, and train Canada's leaders in CAVs, and address the technological and societal challenges associated with CAVs. CAVs have been envisioned to enhance transportation efficiency, reduce accidents, improve safety, and provide great mobility and environmental benefits. Despite the potentially promising vision of CAVs, significant challenges remain to be addressed before their widespread deployment for intelligent transportation systems. Recently, several fatal accidents have occurred involving the CAVs. In 2019, Transport Canada identified gaps in "regulation, safety, security, privacy, and policy development and training in CAVs". Engineers Canada has highlighted CAVs as an important emerging technology requiring new skills and the importance of supporting paid post-secondary engineering co-operative placements. This CREATE program will specifically help address this looming skills shortage by training a cohort of high-calibre HQP with the necessary technical knowledge related to CAVs and auxiliary the professional skills to successfully transition to the workplace, as well as exposing the trainees to real CAVs and all-weather L5 test tracks through internships with industry and government organizations.
