DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Training in molecular biotechnology is essential for an expanding list of disciplines that have found modern biology-based skills of critical importance in pursuing research goals in areas ranging from biochemistry to chemical engineering to plant biology. Recognizing this, NC State University has created a core education facility that serves campus-wide needs for graduate students requiring laboratory-based training in aspects of modern biology. This not only facilitates completion of the students' dissertation research, but also lays the basis for career opportunities in academic, government and industrial research settings. Using this campus educational resource as a framework, NC State University proposes to continue a graduate level training program in molecular biotechnology that will involve students from at least 4 colleges and 10 university departments. Ten trainee slots are requested for the next training period, which will be augmented by 4 slots funded from university resources. The program requirements include completing: (1) a graduate level, laboratory minor in molecular biotechnology; (2) an off-campus industrial internship; (3) a capstone biotechnology design course; (4) a course in professional development; (5) a course in research ethics; (6) an annual research symposium; and, (7) a biotechnology-related service project. These requirements are in addition to those associated with the student's particular department or program for the doctoral degree. This program will also provide a central focus for faculty of the various disciplines involved in this training effort to seek out new opportunities for formal and informal research collaboration. RELEVANCE: Advanced training in molecular biotechnology is critical to modern medical science research and should be a key component of pre-doctoral education for students aspiring to academic, industrial, and government research setting.

描述（由申请人提供）：分子生物技术的培训对于越来越多的学科来说是必不可少的，这些学科已经发现了现代生物学为基础的技能，这些技能对于追求从生物化学到化学工程到植物生物学等领域的研究目标至关重要。认识到这一点，北卡罗莱纳州立大学创建了一个核心教育设施，为需要在现代生物学方面进行实验室培训的研究生提供全校范围内的需求。这不仅有助于学生完成论文研究，而且为学术，政府和工业研究机构的职业机会奠定了基础。以校园教育资源为框架，北卡罗来纳州立大学提议继续开展分子生物技术研究生水平的培训项目，该项目将涉及至少4个学院和10个大学系的学生。下一个训练期需要10个培训名额，并将增加4个由大学资源资助的名额。课程要求包括完成：(1)研究生水平，辅修分子生物技术实验室；(2)校外产业实习；(3)顶级生物技术设计课程；（四）专业发展课程；(5)研究伦理课程；（六）年度研究座谈会；(7)生物技术相关服务项目。这些要求是在与学生的特定部门或博士学位课程相关的要求之外的。该项目还将为参与培训工作的各个学科的教师提供一个中心焦点，以寻求正式和非正式研究合作的新机会。
