This award will establish a new Engineering Project Center in Wuhan, China to provide international research experiences for up to 30 U.S. undergraduates in mechanical engineering to complete an international design and manufacturing operations project during their senior year. Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) faculty and undergraduates will form project-based teams pairing undergraduates and faculty from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST) in Wuhan, China. Under the joint guidance of WPI and HUST faculty, U.S. and Chinese student teams will address "real-world" technical engineering challenges in areas such as lean manufacturing implementation, automated packaging devices design and optimization for supplier-based manufacturing, among others. Students from both sides will undergo cultural and language preparation, and conduct preliminary analyses prior to departing WPI for Wuhan for 8-week experiences in China addressing public and private sector manufacturing problems.

该奖项将在中国武汉建立一个新的工程项目中心，为最多 30 名美国机械工程本科生提供国际研究经验，以便他们在高年级完成国际设计和制造运营项目。 伍斯特理工学院 (WPI) 的教职员工和本科生将组成基于项目的团队，与中国武汉华中科技大学 (HUST) 的本科生和教职员工配对。 在 WPI 和华中科技大学教师的共同指导下，美国和中国的学生团队将解决精益制造实施、自动化包装设备设计和基于供应商制造的优化等领域的“现实世界”技术工程挑战。 双方学生将接受文化和语言准备，并进行初步分析，然后离开 WPI 前往武汉，在中国进行为期 8 周的体验，解决公共和私营部门的制造问题。
