JERZY R. LESZCZYNSKI Jackson State University Dr. Leszczynski recognized early in his career that successful mentoring was integral to an effective research program. Developing a strategy to not only attract, but retain students was important to his and student needs. He led the expansion of the Computational Chemistry Department at Jackson State University. The Ph.D. program was created and Dr. Leszczynski led the development of formal and informal mentoring programs. Currently, Dr. Leszczynski leads an internationally recognized Computational Chemistry Department and has provided opportunities for Ph.D. candidates to participate in international labs.Dr. Leszczynski has developed and promoted underrepresented students in Computational Chemistry, an area of STEM where very few such students currently participate. Over an eight year period, Dr. Leszczynski developed a number of formal programs and mentoring techniques that resulted in increase of African American and female students trained in computational chemistry methods. During this time, the department's Ph.D. program was developed and has grown to enroll approximately 50 students, more than 50% being African American. Seven of these students have already defended their Ph.D. theses while ten more are being mentored directly by him. He has also developed a Summer Institute program serving 110 students and ten faculty members, mostly from HBCUs. He developed a two conference series that brought over 2000 participants to JSU, including four Nobel Laureates. Dr. Leszczynski's activities stimulate the interest of undergraduate students in pursuing graduate education in the field of science. Research collaboration and training of undergraduate students has been originated for Tougaloo College, an HBCU institution in Jackson, and for Universidad Metropolitana in San Juan. Three Ph.D. students from Dr. Leszczynski's group had been selected to participate in the meetings of Nobel Laureates in Lindau, Germany.

杰西河Leszczynski 杰克逊州立大学Leszczynski博士在他的职业生涯早期就认识到，成功的指导是一个有效的研究计划不可或缺的。制定一项战略，不仅吸引，但留住学生是重要的，他和学生的需求。他领导了杰克逊州立大学计算化学系的扩建。的博士Leszczynski博士领导了正式和非正式的指导计划的发展。目前，Leszczynski博士领导着一个国际公认的计算化学系，并为博士学位提供了机会。Leszczynski博士在计算化学领域培养和促进了代表性不足的学生，这是STEM领域，目前很少有这样的学生参与。Leszczynski博士在八年的时间里开发了许多正式的项目和指导技术，导致接受计算化学方法培训的非洲裔美国人和女学生增加。在此期间，该部门的博士学位。该计划已经发展到招收大约50名学生，其中50%以上是非洲裔美国人。其中7名学生已经通过了博士答辩。而另外十多篇论文则由他直接指导。他还开发了一个暑期研究所计划，为110名学生和10名教职员工提供服务，其中大部分来自HBCU。他开发了两个会议系列，带来了超过2000名参与者JSU，其中包括四名诺贝尔奖获得者。Leszczynski博士的活动激发了本科生在科学领域接受研究生教育的兴趣。研究合作和本科生培训已经开始为Tougaloo学院，一个HBCU机构在杰克逊，并为大都会大学在圣胡安。三个博士Leszczynski博士小组的学生被选中参加在德国林道举行的诺贝尔奖获得者会议。
