Conference Increasing Participation Competitiveness Minority

项目摘要

The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) will host a conference with the goal of helping Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs) increase their competitiveness to obtain public research funds, ultimately contributing to the growth of a more capable and diverse research workforce. Serving high proportions of nontraditional students and students of color, MSIs increase workforce readiness and contribute to increased representation of these underserved groups in post-baccalaureate pathways. The conference will be held in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area in fall 2019, hosting approximately 120 representatives from MSIs across the nation. The conference program will focus on (a) increasing awareness about funding opportunities within the computer and information science and engineering domain (an area of ever-increasing economic and social impact); and (b) cultivating professional relationships, collaborations, and partnerships among conference participants. ASEE staff will consult a three-member planning committee, representing different MSI types, to plan and organize the conference. The conference program will include plenary talks, breakout sessions, and networking sessions. The interactive components of the conference will be designed and structured to emphasize collaboration and to maximize cross-pollination among participants. Conference participants will provide feedback through an online survey, distributed via email immediately following the conference. ASEE will produce a written summary of the meeting that includes summaries of the plenary talks, summary analyses of relevant breakout session discussions, and results from the post-conference survey. The conference is intended to result in emerging collaborations and partnerships among MSIs that support the development and submission of competitive research proposals to computer and information science and engineering programs.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.

美国工程教育协会 (ASEE) 将主办一次会议，旨在帮助少数族裔服务机构 (MSI) 提高获得公共研究资金的竞争力，最终促进培养更有能力、更多元化的研究队伍。 MSI 为大量非传统学生和有色人种学生提供服务，提高了劳动力的准备程度，并有助于增加这些服务不足的群体在学士学位后途径中的代表性。该会议将于 2019 年秋季在华盛顿特区大都会区举行，届时将有来自全国 MSI 的约 120 名代表参加。会议计划将重点关注（a）提高对计算机和信息科学与工程领域（经济和社会影响力不断增加的领域）内资助机会的认识； (b) 培养与会者之间的专业关系、协作和伙伴关系。 ASEE 工作人员将咨询代表不同 MSI 类型的三人规划委员会，以规划和组织会议。会议议程将包括全体会议、分组会议和网络会议。会议互动部分的设计和结构将强调协作并最大限度地提高参与者之间的异花授粉。会议参与者将通过在线调查提供反馈，并在会议结束后立即通过电子邮件分发。 ASEE 将制作会议的书面摘要，包括全体会议的摘要、相关分组会议讨论的摘要分析以及会后调查的结果。此次会议旨在促进 MSI 之间新兴的合作和伙伴关系，支持计算机和信息科学与工程项目的竞争性研究提案的开发和提交。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的评估进行评估，被认为值得支持。智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准。
