IGERT: Open Data: Graduate Training for Data Sharing and Reuse in E-Science

该综合研究生教育和研究培训（IGERT）奖支持密歇根大学电子科学中开放数据共享和数据重用的新研究生培训计划。该计划的目的是为数据共享制定新的政策、实践和技术，以加快科学发现的步伐，并将科学知识转化为有用的产品和技术。它将建立在计算机科学和信息科学研究的基础上，确定获取，管理，共享和存档数据的基本原则，并开发新的工具和技术，将这些原则付诸实践，在生物信息学和材料研究。该计划将以一种新的方式来思考开放数据，从而培养一批博士生。 这些学生将能够为存储库提供高质量的数据，并有效地利用大量的科学研究数据。来自密歇根大学生物信息学、材料科学、化学工程、电气工程和计算机科学以及信息学博士课程的学生将被选为IGERT学员。 学员将参加一个新的数据管理研究生课程，一个多学科的公共研讨会系列与专家演讲，和短期研讨会。 项目教师还将为本科生开发一个补充暑期项目，以吸引不同的学生，并加强该项目在其他科学领域的影响。 IGERT是一个NSF范围内的计划，旨在满足教育美国博士的挑战。具有跨学科背景的科学家和工程师，在所选学科的深厚知识，以及未来职业需求所需的技术，专业和个人技能。该计划旨在通过建立创新的研究生教育和培训新模式，在超越传统学科界限的合作研究的肥沃环境中促进研究生教育的文化变革。

This Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship (IGERT) award supports a new graduate training program in open data sharing and data reuse in e-science at the University of Michigan. The purpose of this program is to generate new policies, practices, and technologies for data sharing that will accelerate the pace of scientific discovery and the transfer of scientific knowledge into useful products and technologies. It will build on computer science and information science research that identifies basic principles for acquiring, managing, sharing, and archiving data and for developing new tools and technologies to put these principles into practice in bioinformatics and materials research. The program will train a cohort of doctoral students in a new way of thinking about open data. These students will be capable of contributing high quality data to repositories and effectively leveraging large volumes of data in scientific research. Students from Michigan's doctoral programs in Bioinformatics, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and Information will be selected as IGERT trainees. The trainees will participate in a new graduate course in data curation, a multi-disciplinary public seminar series with expert speakers, and short workshops. Program faculty will also develop a supplemental summer program for undergraduates to attract diverse students and strengthen the program's impact in other scientific fields. IGERT is an NSF-wide program intended to meet the challenges of educating U.S. Ph.D. scientists and engineers with the interdisciplinary background, deep knowledge in a chosen discipline, and the technical, professional, and personal skills needed for the career demands of the future. The program is intended to catalyze a cultural change in graduate education by establishing innovative new models for graduate education and training in a fertile environment for collaborative research that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries.
