This award supports three Frontiers of Engineering (FoE) Symposia through the National Academy of Engineering (NAE). The U.S. Frontiers of Engineering (September 22-24 in Niskayuna, NY) will cover the topics: Detection and Destruction of Pathogens, and Pure Water Technologies. The US FoE themes involve Engineering for Extreme Environments, Designer Materials, Multiscale Modeling, and Engineering and Entertainment. The German-American Frontiers of Engineering (May 5-7 in Potsdam, Germany) will be held in cooperation with the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation). The themes selected are Visual Communication, Air Transportation, Energy Byproducts: Control and Remediation Technologies, and Micro-reactors in Chemical Synthesis/Drug Development. The Japan-America Frontiers of Engineering Symposium (November 3-5, 2005 in San Jose, CA) will be jointly supported by the Engineering Academy of Japan and Japan Science and Technology Agency. The topics include Humanoid Robots, Semiconductor R&D, Biotechnology: The FoE activity is designed to bring together select groups of engineers from industry, academia, and government labs to discuss pioneering technical work and leading edge research in various engineering fields and industry sectors. All in all about 100 outstanding young engineers, 30 from each country, will participate in the meeting. Speakers are asked to address issues such as what the frontiers in their field are; what experiments and prototypes are in progress; what new tools and instruments are available; what the major impediments to progress are; and what the theoretical, commercial, societal, and long-term significance of the work is. Invitees are accomplished engineers from both industry academia who have made recognized contributions to advancing the frontiers of engineering. The primary benefit of the workshop is that it fosters new interactions between the best junior U.S., Japanese, and German engineers from different fields and sectors. Today's most exciting and powerful engineering developments occur at the intersection of disciplines. By creating the opportunity for sharing of research insights and techniques across a range of fields, this workshop facilitates leaps in knowledge and applications that might otherwise take much longer to achieve.

该奖项通过美国国家工程院 (NAE) 支持三个工程前沿 (FoE) 研讨会。美国工程前沿（9 月 22 日至 24 日，纽约州尼斯卡尤纳）将涵盖以下主题：病原体的检测和破坏以及纯水技术。美国之友的主题包括极端环境工程、设计材料、多尺度建模以及工程和娱乐。德美工程前沿（5 月 5 日至 7 日在德国波茨坦）将与亚历山大·冯·洪堡基金会合作举办。选定的主题包括视觉通信、航空运输、能源副产品：控制和修复技术以及化学合成/药物开发中的微反应器。日美工程前沿研讨会（2005年11月3日至5日，加利福尼亚州圣何塞）将由日本工程院和日本科学技术振兴机构共同支持。主题包括人形机器人、半导体研发、生物技术：FoE 活动旨在将来自工业界、学术界和政府实验室的精选工程师群体聚集在一起，讨论各个工程领域和工业部门的开创性技术工作和前沿研究。共计约100名优秀青年工程师，来自各国各30名，将参加本次会议。演讲者被要求解决诸如其领域的前沿是什么等问题；正在进行哪些实验和原型；有哪些新工具和仪器可用；进展的主要障碍是什么；以及这项工作的理论、商业、社会和长期意义是什么。受邀者都是来自工业界和学术界的杰出工程师，他们为推进工程前沿做出了公认的贡献。该研讨会的主要好处是它促进了来自不同领域和部门的美国、日本和德国最优秀的初级工程师之间的新互动。当今最令人兴奋和最强大的工程发展发生在学科的交叉点。通过创造跨领域分享研究见解和技术的机会，本次研讨会促进了知识和应用的飞跃，否则可能需要更长时间才能实现。
