Masters Level Materials Program Incorporating Significant Industrial Interaction

小行星9710265 该计划在康涅狄格大学材料科学领域创建了一个新的为期两年的MasterOs计划。 现有的三个组织在该项目中进行合作：材料科学研究所（IMS）伙伴项目，康涅狄格州技术推广项目（CONN/STEP）和美国科学院。康涅狄格材料科学系。 该计划使一年级学生接触工业活动以及相关的商业和金融问题。 学生与CONN/STEP现场工程师一起前往工业现场，体验工业问题及其解决方案。 在他们的第二年，学生们研究一个具有教育价值和工业影响的工业问题。 他们写一篇论文和一份关于硕士课程的最终报告。通过这种方法，硕士课程为学生提供了工业视角，解决问题的能力，团队合作以及与管理和财务相关的相关业务问题的组合。 这项教育补助金由公共部门多学科活动办公室和材料研究司提供资金。 该补助金为学生提供新的机会，为学术，工业，政府和非传统角色（如沟通，商业，领导，道德，指导）做好准备，并协助将研究和培训与课程相结合。 ***

9710265 Devereux This program creates a new two-year MasterOs Program in the field of materials science at the University of Connecticut. Three existing groups collaborate in the program: the Institute of Materials Science (IMS) Associates Program, the Connecticut State Technology Extension Program (CONN/STEP), and the U. Conn. Materials Science Department. This program exposes first year students to industrial activities and related business and finance issues. The students travel with CONN/STEP field engineers to industrial sites to experience industrial problems and their solutions. In their second year the students research an industrial problem that has educational value as well as industrial impact. They write a thesis and a final report on the Masters Program. Through this approach the Masters Program provides the students with a combination of industrial perspective, problem solving skills, teamwork and pertinent business issues related to management and finance. 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. ***
