2012年，一个由化学学院、化学工业和政府专家组成的小组提出了一份报告，其中有32项建议，以推进化学科学研究生教育。到目前为止，这项研究的目标接受者，学生，教师和管理人员，还没有被问到他们是否同意这些建议。对2012年加勒比国家联盟研究的受益者进行的一项调查显示，在一些领域达成了共识，但对一些建议的看法也存在巨大分歧。这些意见上的分歧，许多可归因于不同利益攸关方群体的自然需求和价值观。一些分歧问题可能是改善研究生教育的障碍。调查的结果是详细的，并提供解释。还概述了推进化学科学研究生教育的途径。
A panel comprising expert members of the chemistry academy, chemical industry, and the government produced a report in 2012 with 32 recommendations to advance graduate education in the chemical sciences. Until now, the target recipients of the study, students, faculty, and administrators, have not been asked if they agree with the recommendations. A survey of the beneficiaries of the 2012 ACS study reveals areas of consensus but also sharp differences in opinion regarding some of the recommendations. Many of these differences in opinion may be attributed to the natural needs and values of the different stakeholder groups. Some of the divisive issues could represent impediments to improving graduate education. The results of the survey are detailed and interpretation is provided. A path forward to advancing graduate education in the chemical sciences is also outlined.
