Our call to action for you is to share Big Ideas--research problems for ERVA visioning. We greatly appreciate your insight on ideas that can shape exciting future engineering research with impacts that affect our entire ecosystem. Please help ERVA identify bold new engineering research problems that are:
- Emerging or nascent research areas that are currently under-resourced;
- Challenges that engineering can solve;
- Capable of major societal impact;
- Involve broad engagement of the engineering research community;
- Distinct from the previous visioning themes: The Role of Engineering to Address Climate Change, Leveraging Biology to Power Engineering Impact, Engineering R&D Solutions for Unhackable Infrastructure, and Sustainable Transportation Networks, Engineer Systems for Water Security.
Please use the prompts in the survey linked below to describe your research problem. The information you provide will be used, without attribution, by the ERVA leadership (Executive Committee, Standing Council, and Advisory Board) and staff to assess the potential for a visioning workshop theme. Feel free to share this survey to your colleagues in the engineering research community.
