Industrial Research Masters Program for Materials Science and Engineering

9615924经济这项计划拨款用于发展材料科学和工程领域的创新型工业研究硕士课程。该项目专门面向计划在工业研究和开发领域就业的学生。该计划的一个关键要素是设计一门课程，有效地为学生在工业领域的职业生涯做好准备。新的硕士课程将旨在弥合传统大学博士课程的长期基础研究与工业研究和开发的短期重点之间的差距。规划助学金的目的是在行业领袖和教育工作者之间就如何最好地让学生为不断变化的工业环境做好准备的战略达成共识。关于未来材料科学和工程专业招聘和调查中材料行业需求的研讨会，以及工业领域的理工科学生，将有助于确定所需方法。这些战略将在一份详细提案中阐明，供材料研究司审议。这笔教育补助金由MPS多学科活动办公室和材料研究部提供资金。%这笔补助金为学生提供新的机会，让他们为学术、工业、政府和非传统角色(如沟通、商业、领导力、伦理、指导)做准备，并协助将研究和培训与课程相结合。*

9615924EconomyThis planning grant is directed towards development of an innovative Industrial Research Master's Program in Materials Science and Engineering. The program is intended specifically for students planning on careers in industrial research and development. A critical element of this program is the design of a curriculum which effectively prepares the students for careers in industry. The new Master's program will be designed to bridge the gap between the long term basic research of the traditional university Ph.D. program and the shorter term focus of research and development in industry. The planning grant aims at developing a consensus among industrial leaders and educators on strategies to best prepare students for the changing industrial environment. A workshop on materials industries needs in future hires and surveys of materials science and engineering programs and BS students in industry will help define approaches needed. These strategies will be articulated in a detailed proposal for consideration by the Division of Materials Research. This education grant is funded through the MPS Office of Multidisciplinary Activities and the Division of Materials Research..%%% This grant promotes novel opportunities for students to prepare for academic, industrial, government and non-traditional roles (such as communication, business, leadership, ethics, mentoring) and assists in integration of research and training with curricula.***
