The National Academy of Engineers ([http://www.nae.edu/ NAE]) Grand Challenges Scholars Program (GCSP) supports challenges to conquer the greatest engineering challenges of the 21st century. Using input from across the country, the NAE identified 14 areas in need of engineering solutions in the 21st century. Within these 14 areas, the GCSP developed a combined, co-, and extra-curricular program that is intended to prepare the next generation of students to address the challenges within society. The GCSP is an outcomes-based program that is designed to inspire a movement within the participant's local ecosystem. The goal is to pilot innovative educational approaches for engineering students and encourage students to engage with a diverse group of their peers from across the globe to solve the challenges that are crucial for the survival of generations to come.

The NAE Committee on Engineering's Grand Challenges has identified 14 areas awaiting engineering solutions in the 21st century:

#Making solar energy economical

#Provide energy from fusion

#Develop carbon sequestration methods

#Manage the nitrogen cycle

#Provide access to clean water

#Restore and improve urban infrastructure

#Advance health informatics

#Engineer better medicines

#Reverse-engineer the brain

#Prevent nuclear terror

#Secure cyberspace

#Enhance virtual reality

#Advanced personalized learning

#Engineer the tools of scientific discovery

The [http://www.nae.edu/ NAE] Grand Challenge Scholars program is a combined program with five components that are designed to create and inspire our next generation of engineers to face a lifetime of problem solving. These challenges range for simple to extreme, that must be solved to create a stable and safe life for our children and future generations. It is anticipated that each participating institution will develop its own specific realization of the five components and that students who complete the program successfully will receive a distinction of Grand Challenge Scholar endorsed by their institution and the National Academy of Engineering. The Grand Challenge Scholar Program has two levels of organization and thus two levels of assessment are needed to ensure consistency with the core principles set forth by the founding committee.

= ~~Distinct Differences From Other Offerings~~ = The Five Competencies of Future Engineers ==

~~This scholars programs~~ The five components of the Grand Challenge Scholars Program that will prepare future engineers include: 1. ''Project or research activity engaging a GC theme or challenge.'' Working to solve the NAE Grand Challenges is ~~different from other programs in~~ the ~~since of all students from~~ motivation for the ~~campus can~~ GCSP. Each GC scholar must participatein a substantial team or independent project relating to a Grand Challenge theme or specific Grand Challenge problem. ~~Students are able~~   2. ''Interdisciplinary curriculum.'' Bridging engineering to ~~collaborate with~~ other ~~engineers~~ disciplines is essential for solving the NAE Grand Challenges. An “Engineering-Plus” curriculum should be devised that prepares engineering students to work at the boundary between an engineering and non-engineering disciplines, such as public policy, international relations, business, law, ethics, human behavior, risk, medicine and the natural sciences. However, this must be more than simply double majoring or picking up a minor in a non-engineering discipline. Examples that span these disciplines with a coherent theme are ~~active in~~ Energy and the ~~scholarship program~~Environment, Sustainability, Uncertainty, Optimization, etc.  ~~The grand challenges are working towards implementing~~ 3. ''Entrepreneurship.'' Implementing innovation is central to technology development. Each GC scholar must participate in a ~~program~~ curricular or meta-curricular component on the process of translating invention and innovation into market ventures. This may be either risk-taking ventures for Kbusiness or introducing technology for not-12 for-profits that ~~will equip students to become engineers~~scale global solutions in the public interest. <~~div~~br/> 4. ''Global dimension.'' Global awareness is necessary for working effectively in an interdependent world. Students may participate in a curricular or meta-curricular component that instills elements necessary to develop innovations in a global economy or address ethical issues of global concern. Domestic activities that stress global or cross-cultural implications may satisfy this component. 5. ''Service learning.'' Working for the benefit of others is the foundation of a civil society. Students may participate in a curricular or meta-curricular component that deepens their social awareness and to heighten their motivation to bring their technical expertise to bear on societal problems. Programs such as [[Engineers Without Borders|Engineers Without Borders]], or [[Engineering World Health|Engineering World Health]] may be adapted to satisfy this component.<br/span></~~div~~span>

~~Richard Miller, founder of the 14 grand challenges for the National Academy of Engineers says, "This provides students with a vision with what they can do with engineering and how they can change the world." ~~

As an outcomes-based program, the global dimension is one of the driving competencies. The purpose of this pillar is to push students to understand and learn within a multicultural environment. The long-term plan is to replicate this program across the globe because in order for it to achieve success, it has to be a global and engaged group of diverse students.
