Marine Geoscience Leadership Symposium: Professional Development fopr Early Career Researchers

继第一届海洋地球科学领导力研讨会（MGLS）取得成功之后，海洋领导力联盟建议再组织一次研讨会，重点是为早期职业海洋地球科学家提供专业发展培训。为期五天的研讨会将在下一代地球科学家中建立一个同行网络，并为他们提供早期职业发展方面的课程，以加强他们的领导技能。这次研讨会将为科学家提供成为领导者所需的一系列技能培训，包括美国科学机构的知识以及与决策者和立法者接触的有效技术，从而帮助他们做好准备。我们的目标是吸引来自海洋地质学和海洋地球物理学内部或相关的多个学科的科学家，包括使用科学海洋钻探作为工具的研究人员。拟议的活动将包括前沿研究报告、小组讨论、提案写作研讨会，以及与资助机构、媒体代表和华盛顿特区政策制定者的会议。智力成就ocean Leadership提出了一个研讨会，旨在提供能够在学术领域取得成功的领导技能，并将创造一批能够参与合作研究和科学规划的早期职业科学家。研讨会的重要组成部分将包括正式的报告、小组讨论、指导和提供更广阔视角的会议。这种类型的领导力研讨会将讨论国家科学基金会？美国的首要任务是促进科学、工程和教育事业，同时培养下一代科学家。更广泛的影响研讨会的目标是提高早期职业科学家进入海洋地球科学家社区的效率。通过有针对性地培训课堂和实验室以外的技能，这些早期职业研究人员可以成为社区的领导者，并为具有地球科学素养的公众做出贡献。与会者将受到启发，参与科学规划，并与媒体和决策者交谈，进一步扩大研讨会的影响。

Project SummaryFollowing on the success of the first Marine Geoscience Leadership Symposium (MGLS), the Consortium for Ocean Leadership proposes to organize an additional symposium focusing on professional development training for early career marine geoscientists. The five-day symposium will create a network of peers among the next generation of geoscientists and provide them with lessons in early career development to strengthen their leadership skills. The symposium will help prepare scientists by providing training in an array of skills they will need to become leaders, including knowledge of U.S. science agencies and effective techniques to approach decision makers and legislators. We aim to attract scientists from multiple disciplines within or related to marine geology and marine geophysics, including researchers that use scientific ocean drilling as a tool. The proposed activities will include presentations of cutting-edge research, small group discussions, proposal writing workshops, and meetings with funding agencies, media representatives, and policy makers in the Washington, D.C. area.Intellectual MeritOcean Leadership proposes a symposium aimed at providing leadership skills that will lead to success in the academic field and that will create a cohort of early career scientists capable of participating in collaborative research and science planning. Important elements of the symposium will include formal presentations, group discussion, mentoring, and meetings that provide a broader perspective. This type of leadership symposium will address NSF?s primary mission to promote science, engineering, and education careers, while nurturing the next generation of scientists.Broader ImpactsThe goal of the symposium is to increase the effectiveness of early career scientists as they enter the community of marine geoscientists. Through targeted training in skills that extend beyond the classroom and laboratory, these early career researchers can become leaders in their communities and contribute to a geoscience-literate public. Participants will be inspired to become involved in science planning and speaking with the media and with policy makers, further expanding the impact of the symposium.
