Multisite University-Industry Collaboration: A New Paradigm for Graduate Education

9634238 Futrell特拉华州大学一个新的研究生和博士后教育计划，旨在为相关的研究职业生涯在工业将建立通过这个奖项下授予特拉华州大学学术联络与工业（GOALI）计划在化学司和办公室的多学科活动的董事会数学和物理科学。 由Jean H。Futrell是一个由来自特拉华州大学、约翰霍普金斯大学、马里兰州大学、巴尔的摩县和杜邦中央研究与开发部的科学家组成的团队，他们将提供一个新的分析化学研究和培训计划，重点是质谱法的基础研究和工业问题的应用。 该教育计划的特点是在四个地点的研究和培训中分担导师责任，沿着新课程，专业培训经验和结构化实习轮换的组合。 该计划不同于研究生教育的标准模式，因为该计划的教师团队将共同负责向个人博士推荐的学习计划。委员会。 学生将被要求证明掌握所有现代工具的分析解决问题，除了在选定的质谱领域的深入研究。 论文研究将明确包括工业应用组件除了传统的重点基础发现研究。 这种大学/行业合作测试分析化学家的研究生和研究生教育的新范式，目的是为他们在工业研究中的领导角色做好准备。 来自三所大学的科学家和一个主要的工业研究实验室合作伙伴，提供涵盖现代质谱各个方面的教育计划。

9634238 Futrell Univ of Delaware A new program in graduate and postdoctoral education designed for relevance to research careers in industry will be established through this award to the University of Delaware under the Grant Opportunities for Academic Liaison with Industry (GOALI) program in the Chemistry Division and Office of Multidisciplinary Activities of the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences. Led by Jean H. Futrell, a team of scientists from the University of Delaware, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, and DuPont Central Research and Development will provide a new research and training program in analytical chemistry focusing on both fundamental research in mass spectrometry and applications to industrial problems. The educational program features shared mentorship responsibilities in research and training across the four sites, along with a combination of new courses, professional training experiences, and structured internship rotations. The proposed program differs from the standard model of graduate education in that the faculty team for the proposal will be jointly responsible for the programs of study recommended to individual Ph. D. committees. Students will be required to demonstrate mastery of all modern tools for analytical problem solving in addition to in-depth research in a selected area of mass spectrometry. Thesis research will explicitly include an industrial applications component in addition to traditional emphasis on fundamental discovery research. This university/industry collaboration tests a new paradigm in graduate and post-graduate education of analytical chemists with the objective of preparing them for leadership roles in industrial research. Scientists from three universities and a major industrial research laboratory partner to offer an educational program spanning all aspects of modern mass spectrometry.
