External Event: GUIRR Webinar NSF's Future Work at the Human-Technology Frontier, Event Date: July 22, 2020

The Government-University-Industry Research Roundtable (GUIRR) will host a webinar on NSF's Future of Work at the Human-Technology Frontier (FW-HTF) program, which was initiated in 2016 as one of the NSF 10 Big Ideas. FW-HTF supports convergent research integrating considerations of future technology, future workers, and future work. Here, "future technology" refers to advances in engineering, computer science, or other relevant fields, with the potential to create new human-technology work partnerships; "future workers" refers to advances in the fundamental understanding of individual workers, work teams, workplaces, and work organizations; and "future work" refers to advances in the fundamental understanding of educational, organizational, societal, or economic factors, considering both benefits and risks.

Please join GUIRR for an overview of the objectives of the FW-HTF program, with illustrative examples highlighting the diversity of work domains encompassed by the program. Jordan Berg, Program Director in the Directorate for Engineering at NSF; and Chia Shen, Program Director for the Directorate for Education & Human Resources at NSF will present.

There is no cost to this webinar, but registration is required. A confirmation email will be issued prior to the event containing the webinar URL.
