CREATE Sustainable Synthesis

创建可持续综合是一个培训计划，旨在解决本科、硕士、博士和博士后实习生在工业职业方面的学术准备方面的公认差距。创建可持续合成将培训催化研究领域的学生，这需要跨学科的专业知识，以将催化方面的基本发现转化为工业上可行的催化过程，以制备商业产品。催化剂有助于在减少能源需求的情况下发生化学反应，同时减少产生的废物量，因此它们是高效和具有成本效益地生产制成品的关键技术。因此，催化目前被广泛应用于各种行业，包括石化、农化、制药、生物质转化、能源和塑料部门。此外，改进的催化方法是推动这些行业绿色化学和清洁技术发展的基石。*在工业领域，多学科研究人员团队共同努力，以实现新催化转化的全部商业潜力；这是目前学术计划所缺乏的一种方法。创建可持续合成将制药科学家/药物化学家和化学工程师与研究催化的合成化学家结合在一起，以确定在人类健康、聚合物/塑料、能源和生物质转化方面的潜在应用。此外，化学家和化学工程师将共同开展向制造业转让技术的可行性研究。在短期课程形式中，学员将学习商业、项目管理、沟通和知识产权的基础知识，为进入工业工作场所做好准备。最重要的是，超过6个行业合作伙伴和15个学术共同申请者和合作者，涉及一系列业务部门和技术专长，已合作创建可持续综合，以设计培训计划，并为注册的研究生提供4至8个月的实习机会。**********

CREATE Sustainable Synthesis is a training program designed to address an acknowledged gap in the academic preparation of undergraduate, MSc, PhD and postdoctoral trainees for careers in industry. CREATE Sustainable Synthesis will train students in the field of Catalysis Research, which requires inter-disciplinary expertise to move a fundamental discovery in catalysis into an industrially viable catalytic process for the preparation of commercial products. Catalysts help chemical reactions to occur with reduced energy demands while generating reduced amounts of waste and consequently they are critical technologies for producing manufactured goods efficiently and cost-effectively. Thus, catalysis is presently used in a broad range of industries including the petrochemical, agrochemical, pharmaceutical, biomass conversion, energy and plastics sectors. Furthermore, improved catalytic methods are the cornerstone of advancing Green Chemistry and Clean Technology development for these industries. **In industry, teams of multi-disciplinary researchers work together to realize the full commercial potential of new catalytic transformations; an approach that is presently lacking in current academic programs. CREATE Sustainable Synthesis marries Pharmaceutical Scientists/Medicinal Chemists and Chemical Engineers with Synthetic Chemists researching in Catalysis to identify potential applications in human-health, polymers/plastics, energy and biomass conversion. Furthermore, Chemists and Chemical Engineers will work together to carry out feasibility investigations for technology transfer to the manufacturing sector. In short course format, trainees will learn the basics of business, project management, communication and Intellectual Property to prepare them for the industrial work place. Most importantly, more than 6 industrial partners and 15 academic co-applicants and collaborators over a range of business sectors and technical expertise have partnered in CREATE Sustainable Synthesis to design the training program and provide 4 to 8 month internships for the graduate students enrolled. **********
