NC STATE MOLECULAR BIOTECHNOLOGY TRAINING PROGRAM (MBTP)

项目摘要 分子生物技术方面的培训对于不断扩大的已发现现代生物技术的学科名单至关重要。 基于生物学的技能对于追求从生物化学到生物医学等领域的研究目标至关重要 从化学工程到植物生物学。认识到这一点，北卡罗来纳州立大学创建了一个核心教育设施 为需要在现代科学方面进行实验室培训的研究生提供校园范围的需求 生物学这不仅有利于学生完成论文研究，而且为 在学术，政府和工业研究环境中的职业机会。利用这个校园教育 北卡罗来纳州立大学提出了一个分子生物技术培训计划（MBTP）， 促进现代生物学研究生水平的培训，将涉及至少四所学院和13所大学的学生。 大学部门/方案。由董事担任主席的执行委员会将领导 MBTP和监督小组委员会专注于计划要素。培训的具体目标 计划是：1）确保技术熟练和培训，在负责任和严格的科学; 2）提供一个 满足毕业生期望的教育和专业经验; 3）培养强大的博士学位 毕业成果。要求提供10个实习生名额，并将增加4个由大学资助的名额 资源该计划的要求包括：研究生水平，在分子生物技术实验室未成年人; 为期3个月的校外工业实习;顶峰生物技术设计课程;专业课程 发展;研究伦理课程;科学严谨性和可重复性课程;年度研究 研讨会;和一个与生物技术有关的外联项目。这些要求是除了那些 与学生的特定部门或程序的博士学位。该方案还将 为参与这项培训工作的各个学科的教师提供一个中心焦点， 提供正式和非正式的研究合作机会。

Project Summary 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 a Molecular Biotechnology Training Program (MBTP) to foster graduate-level training in modern biology that will involve students from at least four Colleges and 13 university Departments/Programs. An Executive Committee chaired by the Directors will lead the operation of the MBTP and oversee sub-committees focusing on program elements. The specific objectives of the training program are: 1) Ensure technical proficiency and training in responsible and rigorous science; 2) Provide an educational and professional experience that satisfies graduates' expectations; and 3) Foster robust PhD graduation outcomes. Ten trainee slots are requested that will be augmented by four slots funded from university resources. The program requirements include: a graduate-level, laboratory minor in Molecular Biotechnology; an off‐campus, 3-month industrial internship; a capstone biotechnology design course; a course in professional development; courses in research ethics; a course in scientific rigor and reproducibility; an annual research symposium; and a biotechnology ‐ related outreach 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.
