March 2-3, 2009 NAE Grand Challenges Summit
|
|
The Summit will be a two-day event on March 2-3, 2009 in Durham, NC,
drawing leading engineering, science, humanities and social science
scholars from across the nation to articulate the challenges and
opportunities of the science, technology, and policy related to each National Academy of Engineering Grand Challenge and proposed solutions.
The Grand Challenges are a call to action and serve as a focal point
for society's attention to the most important opportunities that
challenge our quality of life.
In response to this call, Duke University in partnership with the
University of Southern California Viterbi School of Engineering and
Olin College are hosting the Summit to stimulate conversations on the
importance of engineering and science in maintaining and enhancing our
quality of life.
