在2001年,ACS报告说,在化学通常准备个人的职业生涯中的基础研究。这个学位通常不会让这些高技能的研究专业人员成为教职员工。在NSF举行的一次研讨会的报告指出,博士后经历的目的应该是为博士后的职业生涯做好准备,而不仅仅是作为研究人员-在过去的10年里,加州大学洛杉矶分校化学和生物化学系通过为博士生开设的“未来教师准备”(PFF)课程来解决这些问题。学生和博士后学者。为了评估该课程的长期影响,我们向91名在1994年至2002年期间参加过该项目并与我们保持联系的人发送了一份问卷。在41%的答复率中,86%(32人)认为自己在各类高等教育机构担任学术职务。调查显示,研讨会的所有组成部分都有助于学术招聘过程中,有些方面仍然是有用的受访者在他们目前的教师职位。
In 2001, the ACS reported, â��The Ph.D. in chemistry usually prepares individuals for careers in basic research. The degree does not typically prepare these highly skilled research professionals to be faculty members.â� In 2004, a report of a workshop held at NSF noted that â��the purpose of the postdoctoral experience should â�¦ prepare postdocs for professional careers that are not solely as faculty members at research-intensive universities.â� For the past 10 years the UCLA Chemistry and Biochemistry department has addressed these issues through a Preparing Future Faculty (PFF) course for Ph.D. students and postdoctoral scholars. To assess the long-term impact of the course, a questionnaire was sent to 91 people with whom we still had contact information and who had participated in the program between 1994 and 2002. From the 41% response rate, 86% (32) identified themselves as being in academic positions from the full range of types of higher education institutions. The survey revealed that all components of the seminar were helpful for the academic recruitment process and that some aspects continued to be useful for the respondents in their current faculty positions.
