The purpose of this award is to provide partial travel support for 43 graduate and undergraduate students to attend the American Society of Mechanical Engineers International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition in Pittsburgh, PA, from November 12-15, 2018. The students participate in a Society-Wide Micro and Nano Technology Forum (Topic 16-13), which focuses on new developments in the field of micro and nano engineering and science. The students present through oral and poster sessions their latest results to the broader Engineering community. Travel grants for the students are based on the technical quality of the poster abstracts submitted as well as on a statement from the students' research advisors. Priority is given to student participants who are women or who come from underrepresented groups, and to undergraduate students. This approach promotes diverse participation at the conference, in the short term, and in STEM fields, in the long term. This award benefits the nation through the education of a skilled and diverse engineering workforce better prepared to provide transformative solutions the challenges of their chosen fields.This participation support is expected to benefit the students' professional, scientific and technical development. Attendance at the conference gives the students a broader view of the engineering profession and of state-of-the-art research in their fields via access to several technical and professional development talks by leading domestic and international speakers. Students enhance their communication skills through oral and poster presentations, in-depth discussions of their work with peers in their fields during the Society-wide Poster Symposium at the Micro and Nanotechnology Forum. This interactive experience significantly broadens student education, increases their enthusiasm for their research topic, acquaints them with expectations for scientific careers, and exposes them to new avenues for innovative research.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.

该奖项的目的是为 43 名研究生和本科生提供部分旅行支持，以参加 2018 年 11 月 12 日至 15 日在宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡举行的美国机械工程师学会国际机械工程大会和博览会。 -宽微纳米技术论坛（主题16-13），重点关注微纳米工程和科学领域的新发展。学生们通过口头和海报会议向更广泛的工程界展示他们的最新成果。学生的旅费补助基于提交的海报摘要的技术质量以及学生研究顾问的声明。优先考虑女性或来自代表性不足群体的学生参与者以及本科生。这种方法在短期内促进了会议的多元化参与，从长远来看则促进了 STEM 领域的多元化参与。该奖项通过教育技术精湛、多元化的工程人员，更好地为他们所选择的领域的挑战提供变革性的解决方案，使国家受益。这种参与支持预计将有利于学生的专业、科学和技术发展。参加会议可以让学生们通过参加国内和国际领先演讲者的多次技术和专业发展讲座，对工程专业和各自领域的最先进研究有更广阔的视野。学生通过口头和海报展示以及在微纳米技术论坛的全社会海报研讨会上与各自领域的同行深入讨论他们的工作来提高他们的沟通技巧。这种互动体验极大地拓宽了学生的教育范围，提高了他们对研究课题的热情，让他们了解了对科学职业的期望，并让他们接触到创新研究的新途径。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用评估方法进行评估，认为值得支持。基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
