Student Travel Grant: 2003 American Control Conference

智力奖励：该项目的目的是为参加由美国自动控制委员会主办的2003年美国控制会议（ACC 2003）的工程学生提供经济资助。会议的重点将集中在理论问题，工程方法，以及控制研究和发展的所有领域的工业应用。这个项目的主要目标是让学生了解控制理论和应用的最新进展。作为一项新举措的一部分，PI将为ACC 2002组织面向学生的会议，帮助这些未来的专业工程师为他们的职业生涯做好准备。以ACC 2003学生旅行补助金的形式为学生与会者提供旅行支持，并将在全国范围内进行宣传。特别鼓励女性、少数民族和残疾学生申请。活动产生的更广泛影响：参加会议并参加以学生为导向的活动的研究生可能会在控制理论及其应用领域从事职业。

Intellectual Merit: The purpose of this project is to provide financial assistance toengineering students to attend the 2003 American Control Conference (ACC 2003),sponsored by the American Automatic Control Council. The focus of the conference willcenter on theoretical issues, engineering methodologies, and industrial applications in allareas of control research and development.The primary goal of this project is to expose students to current advances in controltheory and applications. As part of a new initiative, the PI will organize student-orientedsessions for ACC 2002 to help these future professional engineers prepare for theircareers. Travel support for student attendees, in the form of ACC 2003 Student TravelGrants, will be advertised nationally. Women, minorities, and disabled students will beespecially encouraged to apply.Broader Impacts resulting from the Proposed Activity: Graduate students whoattend the conference and participate in the student-oriented activities are likely topursue careers in the field of control theory and its applications.
