Industrial Research Masters Program for Materials Science and Engineering

9615924EconomyThis规划补助金是针对一个创新的工业研究硕士课程在材料科学与工程的发展。该计划是专门为学生规划在工业研究和发展的职业生涯。该计划的一个关键因素是设计一个课程，有效地为学生在工业中的职业生涯做好准备。新的硕士课程将旨在弥合传统大学博士学位的长期基础研究之间的差距。计划和工业研究和开发的短期重点。规划补助金的目的是在工业领导人和教育工作者之间就战略达成共识，使学生为不断变化的工业环境做好最好的准备。关于材料行业未来招聘需求的研讨会，以及材料科学与工程项目和工业学士学位学生的调查，将有助于确定所需的方法。这些战略将在一份详细提案中阐述，供材料研究司审议。这项教育补助金由公共卫生部多学科活动办公室和材料研究司提供资金。该补助金促进学生为学术，工业，政府和非传统角色（如通信，商业，领导，道德，指导）做好准备的新机会，并协助将研究和培训与课程相结合。

9615924EconomyThis planning grant is directed towards development of an innovative Industrial Research Master's Program in Materials Science and Engineering. The program is intended specifically for students planning on careers in industrial research and development. A critical element of this program is the design of a curriculum which effectively prepares the students for careers in industry. The new Master's program will be designed to bridge the gap between the long term basic research of the traditional university Ph.D. program and the shorter term focus of research and development in industry. The planning grant aims at developing a consensus among industrial leaders and educators on strategies to best prepare students for the changing industrial environment. A workshop on materials industries needs in future hires and surveys of materials science and engineering programs and BS students in industry will help define approaches needed. These strategies will be articulated in a detailed proposal for consideration by the Division of Materials Research. This education grant is funded through the MPS Office of Multidisciplinary Activities and the Division of Materials Research..%%% This grant promotes novel opportunities for students to prepare for academic, industrial, government and non-traditional roles (such as communication, business, leadership, ethics, mentoring) and assists in integration of research and training with curricula.***
