Due to the sensitivity of ecosystems at the land-water interface and our dependence on them, it is increasingly imperative that we understand how they function and manage them wisely. This will require the combined efforts of physical, social and natural scientists, mathematicians, and modelers. Yet graduate students are not trained to interact across these disciplines. To add breadth to graduate training, this project will bring together established leaders in the social and natural sciences and recent graduates to design a capstone educational program. The objective of the educational program is to better prepare graduates for interdisciplinary careers dedicated to understanding, prediction and management of environments and resources at the land-water interface. The recommendations of the assembled group will be used to develop a model program to enhance interdisciplinary understanding, leadership training and networking.

由于陆地-水界面生态系统的敏感性以及我们对它们的依赖性，我们越来越有必要了解它们如何运作并明智地管理它们。这需要物理、社会和自然科学家、数学家和建模者的共同努力。然而，研究生并没有受过跨学科互动的训练。为了增加研究生培训的广度，该项目将汇集社会和自然科学领域的知名领导者和应届毕业生，设计一个顶点教育计划。该教育计划的目标是更好地为毕业生准备跨学科的职业生涯，致力于在陆地-水界面的环境和资源的理解，预测和管理。该小组的建议将用于制定一个示范方案，以加强跨学科的理解，领导力培训和网络。
