This National Science Foundation (NSF) grant, the Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship (IGERT) Program, is designed to revolutionize U.S. doctoral education. It aims to develop Ph.D. scientists and engineers with strong interdisciplinary backgrounds, deep disciplinary knowledge, and essential professional skills. The program establishes innovative models for graduate training, fostering collaborative research that transcends traditional academic boundaries. A key objective is to promote diversity among students and prepare a world-class, globally engaged science and engineering workforce. This grant specifically supports new educational models where students engage in hands-on innovation, learning how their research contributes to societal benefit and the processes for successful implementation.

Description: | The Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship (IGERT) program has been developed to meet the challenges of educating U.S. Ph.D. scientists and engineers with interdisciplinary backgrounds, deep knowledge in chosen disciplines, and technical, professional, and personal skills. The program is intended to establish new models for graduate education and training in a fertile environment for collaborative research that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries. It is also intended to facilitate diversity in student participation and preparation, and to contribute to a world-class, broadly inclusive, and globally engaged science and engineering workforce. Building upon the IGERT platform, the purpose of this IGERT solicitation is to support new models in graduate education in which students are engaged in an environment that supports innovation to learn through hands-on experience how their own research may contribute in new ways to benefit society and to learn the processes for the successful implementation of such contributions. |
