The goal of this award is to broaden the audience attending the premier conference in communications, the IEEE Communications Society Conference on Sensing, Communication, and Networking (SECON), and as a result, raise the level of interaction and the potential for new collaborations, new investigations, and higher quality research. Support from the National Science Foundation is provided through this award for graduate students attending institutions in the United States. IEEE SECON publishes top-tier research on sensor networks and the Internet of Things, and is one of the top four conferences in this space. Since 2013, the conference has refined its scope to focus almost exclusively on sensors, sensor networks and their applications, with its large and varied application domains. Conference attendance is a crucial part of the life of a researcher. By creating new opportunities for students (especially those from under-represented groups) to attend a high-quality conference, this project will benefit the research community in several ways. The students themselves benefit from the opportunity to meet and interact with many other researchers in a favorable setting, and from attending research presentations that may be related to their research areas. The research community benefits from the improvement of the students in the pipeline, and from the introduction of new researcher perspectives. Additionally, everybody benefits from increased diversity of participants attending the conference.

该奖项的目标是扩大参加通信领域顶级会议 IEEE 通信学会传感、通信和网络会议 (SECON) 的受众，从而提高互动水平和新合作的潜力，新的调查和更高质量的研究。美国国家科学基金会通过该奖项为在美国院校就读的研究生提供支持。 IEEE SECON 发表有关传感器网络和物联网的顶级研究成果，是该领域四大顶级会议之一。自2013年以来，该会议缩小了范围，几乎完全专注于传感器、传感器网络及其应用，其应用领域广泛且多样。 参加会议是研究人员生活的重要组成部分。通过为学生（特别是来自代表性不足群体的学生）创造参加高质量会议的新机会，该项目将从多个方面使研究界受益。学生本身有机会在有利的环境中与许多其他研究人员会面和互动，并参加可能与其研究领域相关的研究报告，从而受益匪浅。研究界受益于学生的进步以及新的研究人员观点的引入。此外，每个人都受益于参加会议的参与者多样性的增加。
