Urbanized estuaries and coastal regions, where rising sea level, warming temperatures, and invasive species intersect growing human populations, intensifying development, and economically important activities, are among the most vulnerable to the pressures of disruptive global changes. Interdisciplinary STEM professionals are needed to develop and implement evidence-based adaptation strategies and solutions that will harmonize human-built and natural environments to support coastal ecosystem and community resilience. This National Science Foundation Research Traineeship (NRT) award to San Francisco State University will prepare a new generation of masters-level graduates with the scientific and professional skills needed to enter STEM and STEM-allied careers that address research projects focused on adaptation, mitigation and conservation solutions for urbanized coastal areas confronting the effects of climate change. Trainees will be recruited from a diversity of populations to enhance the creativity and success of our nation's future STEM professionals. The project anticipates training forty (40) to sixty (60) MS students, including forty (40) funded trainees, from the Departments of Biology, Earth and Climate Science, Chemistry, and Geography; trainees will participate in an interdisciplinary MS degree program in Marine Science based at the Romberg Tiburon Center for Environmental Studies.The project will combine coursework, an interdisciplinary research experience, and a professional internship to graduate MS students adept at working at the interface of science and society in a time of global change. The new MS curriculum will consist of: (1) an integrated series of courses and workshops to provide a comprehensive background in global change impacts on urbanized coastal areas and professional and communication skills training; (2) an internship with a policy, management or public education organization; (3) an independent research project; (4) teaching experience through a teaching assistantship; and (5) dedicated advising sessions throughout the program to support student success and professional development. Formal coursework will introduce students to interconnected aspects of estuarine and coastal processes, biotic responses, critical habitats, human impacts, and resource management issues associated with global change. Graduate seminars will emphasize critical reading of relevant primary literature. Workshops will address professional skills, scientific communication, scientific writing, data analysis, ethics and budgeting. Our program will train MS students to reach diverse audiences through effective communication and education, and support policymakers in translating science to inform decisions. Trainees will be mentored in conducting cutting-edge research projects that examine impacts of global change and that illuminate fruitful areas for action in developing solutions. The NSF Research Traineeship (NRT) Program is designed to encourage the development and implementation of bold, new potentially transformative models for STEM graduate education training. The Traineeship Track is dedicated to effective training of STEM graduate students in high priority interdisciplinary research areas, through the comprehensive traineeship model that is innovative, evidence-based, and aligned with changing workforce and research needs.

在城市化的河口和沿海地区，海平面上升、气温升高、入侵物种与不断增长的人口、加速的发展和重要的经济活动交织在一起，是最容易受到破坏性全球变化压力的地区之一。需要跨学科的STEM专业人员来制定和实施基于证据的适应战略和解决方案，以协调人造环境和自然环境，以支持沿海生态系统和社区的复原力。这项授予旧金山州立大学的国家科学基金会研究培训（NRT）奖将培养新一代硕士水平的毕业生，他们具备进入STEM和STEM相关职业所需的科学和专业技能，从事研究项目，重点是应对气候变化影响的城市化沿海地区的适应、缓解和保护解决方案。培训生将从不同的人群中招募，以提高我国未来STEM专业人员的创造力和成功能力。该项目预计将培养40至60名硕士学生，其中包括40名受资助的学员，他们来自生物、地球与气候科学、化学和地理等系；学员将参加Romberg Tiburon环境研究中心的跨学科海洋科学硕士学位课程。该项目将结合课程作业、跨学科研究经验和专业实习，使硕士毕业生能够在全球变化的时代熟练地在科学与社会的界面上工作。新的硕士课程将包括：(1)一系列综合课程和研讨会，提供全球变化对城市化沿海地区影响的综合背景，以及专业和沟通技巧培训；（二）在政策、管理、公共教育机构实习；（三）自主研究项目；（四）获得助教资格的教学经验；(5)在整个项目中提供专门的咨询会议，以支持学生的成功和专业发展。正式的课程将向学生介绍河口和沿海过程，生物反应，关键栖息地，人类影响和与全球变化相关的资源管理问题的相互关联的方面。研究生研讨会将强调对相关主要文献的批判性阅读。讲习班将涉及专业技能、科学传播、科学写作、数据分析、道德和预算编制。我们的项目将培养硕士学生通过有效的沟通和教育来接触不同的受众，并支持决策者将科学转化为决策。受训人员将在开展尖端研究项目方面得到指导，这些项目将审查全球变化的影响，并为制定解决办法的行动指明富有成效的领域。美国国家科学基金会研究实习生（NRT）计划旨在鼓励开发和实施大胆的、具有潜在变革性的STEM研究生教育培训新模式。通过创新、循证、适应不断变化的劳动力和研究需求的综合培训模式，培训项目致力于在高优先级跨学科研究领域对STEM研究生进行有效培训。
