2 2019 ENGINEERING RESEARCH COUNCIL ANNUAL CONFERENCE
WESTIN ARLINGTON - 801 N GLEBE RD, ARLINGTON, VA 22203
ABOUT THE ERC ANNUAL CONFERENCEConference Goals:The topics for this year’s conference reflect both the feedback received from prior ERC Conferences, responsibilities and professional development for associate deans of research for colleges of engineering, the needs identified by responses to the ERC 2018 membership survey concerning roles and the 2017 survey concerning appointment characteristics and responsibilities for engineering associate deans for research. An exciting and VERY timely addition this year is a session on “Research Issues and Considerations with China.”
