Doctoral Consortium at the 2016 IEEE Conference on Automation Science and Engineering (CASE 2016)

这项提议将支持在机器人领域工作的美国博士生有机会分享他们的知识并相互交流，与更资深的研究人员交流，了解机器人领域的不同子领域，会见潜在的雇主，并了解供应商将展示的新技术。这一目标将通过部分资助美国博士生参加国际自动化科学与工程会议(IEEE Robotics and Automation Society的旗舰会议之一)来实现。这次会议吸引了包括学者、行业工作者、企业家和融资机构领导人在内的国际人群。

This proposal will support U.S. Ph.D. students working in robotics the opportunity to share their knowledge and interact with each other and more senior researchers, to learn about different sub-fields within robotics, to meet potential employers, and to become apprised of new technology that will be demonstrated by vendors. This goal will be accomplished by partially supporting the travel costs for U.S. Ph.D. students to attend the International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering, which is one of the flagship conferences of the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society. The conference attracts an international crowd that includes academics, industry workers, entrepreneurs, and funding agency leaders.
