IGERT: Environmental Manufacturing Management

这一综合性教育与研究培训(IGERT)奖将支持克拉克森大学环境制造管理多学科研究生培训计划的建立。该项目的目标是使研究生具备强大的技术技能，并为他们提供在环境、管理、经济、政策和沟通方面的广泛接触，这些方面对于在这一复杂领域取得进展至关重要。这项活动由来自克拉克森大学工程学院、理学院、商学院和文学院的16名科学家和工程师共同努力。这组学者的成员已经建立了研究合作关系，他们的集体专长将为在该奖项的五年任期内培训一支由约48名研究生组成的多样化干部提供智力基础。每年录取的学生将作为一个由理工科博士生和管理系统硕士学生组成的团队在该项目中取得进步。教师导师之间的互动将通过研讨会和务虚会得到加强。研究将采取系统的方法。该计划的组成部分是工业实习，在实习中，研究团队将与制造人员互动。IGERT设置的一个独特特点是一个新的试验性制造测试设施，将用于在实习期间评估所研究的制造工艺的技术、操作和管理替代方案，规模足以获得真实的性能和成本数据。IGERT是一个新的NSF范围内的项目，旨在促进创新的、以研究为基础的研究生项目的建立，这些项目将培训不同的科学家和工程师群体，为充分利用广泛的职业选择做好准备。IGERT为博士机构提供了一个机会，以开发新的、重点明确的、超越组织边界的多学科研究生课程，并团结来自几个系或机构的教师，为培训和研究建立一个高度互动、协作的环境。在该计划的第一年，将为17个机构提供支持，这些机构的新项目或新生项目共同涵盖了NSF支持的所有科学和工程领域。

This Integrative Graduate Education and Research Training (IGERT) award will support the establishment of a multidisciplinary graduate training program in Environmental Manufacturing Management at Clarkson University. The goal of this program is to equip graduate students with strong technical skills and provide them with extensive exposure to the environmental, managerial, economic, policy, and communication aspects essential to progress in this complex field. This activity is a joint effort of sixteen scientists and engineers from the Schools of Engineering, Science, Business, and Liberal Arts at Clarkson University. Members of this group of scholars have established research collaborations and their collective expertise will provide the intellectual underpinning for the training of a diverse cadre of some forty-eight graduate students over the five-year tenure of the award. Students admitted each year will progress through the program as a cohort comprised of teams of doctoral students in science and engineering and masters students in management systems. Interaction among the faculty mentors will be enhanced through seminars and retreats. Research will take a systems approach. Integral to the program are industrial internships wherein research teams will interact with manufacturing personnel. A unique feature of this IGERT setting will be a new pilot manufacturing testing facility that will be used to evaluate technical, operational, and managerial alternatives to the manufacturing processes under study during the internships at a scale sufficient to obtain realistic performance and cost data. IGERT is a new, NSF-wide program intended to facilitate the establishment of innovative, research-based graduate programs that will train a diverse group of scientists and engineers to be well-prepared to take advantage of a broad spectrum of career options. IGERT provides doctoral institutions with an opportunity to develop new, well-focussed multidisciplinary graduate programs that transcend organizational boundaries and unite faculty from several departments or institutions to establish a highly interactive, collaborative environment for both training and research. In this first year of the program, support will be provided to seventeen institutions for new or nascent programs that collectively span all areas of science and engineering supported by NSF.
