Student Travel Support Program for 2020 American Control Conference; Denver, Colorado; July 1-3, 2020

这笔助学金将为26名学生提供参加美国控制会议的机会，在那里他们将参加讲座，展示他们的研究成果，并与该领域的其他学生、教师和专业人员建立网络。美国控制会议是国际公认的致力于推进控制理论和实践的重要科学和工程会议。这次会议汇集了国际研究人员和实践者社区，讨论自动控制领域的最新发现。2020 ACC技术计划将包括几种类型的演讲，包括定期和特邀会议、辅导会议和特别会议以及研讨会和展品。本次会议讨论的控制和应用(例如，能源、交通、制造)涉及与国家科学基金会相关的所有领域。该项目将产生巨大的更广泛的影响，因为所有获得旅行补助金的学生都将是不同的(即女性、少数族裔、残疾人、退伍军人和第一代学生)和/或来自非R1机构的学生。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This grant will provide the opportunity for 26 students to attend the American Control Conference where they will attend lectures, present their research, and network with other students, faculty, and professionals in the field. The American Control Conference is internationally recognized as a premier scientific and engineering conference dedicated to the advancement of control theory and practice. The conference brings together an international community of researchers and practitioners to discuss the latest findings in automatic control.The 2020 ACC technical program will comprise several types of presentations in regular and invited sessions, tutorial sessions, and special sessions along with workshops and exhibits. Controls and the applications considered in this conference (e.g., energy, transportation, manufacturing) span all areas relevant to the National Science Foundation. The project will have a tremendous broader impact in that all the students provided with a travel grant will be diverse (i.e., women, minorities, persons with disabilities, veterans, and first-generation students) and/or from non R1 institutions.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.
