Reshaping the Graduate Education of Scientists and Engineers

Do you need such a position? According to the information collected by the committee (see Section 7 and Appendix F), the opposite is true. The employer seems to be trying to successfully complete the intellectual criteria of the first research in the doctoral program, ie competent and initiative. Complexity and the complexity of more and more positions seem to require the qualities acquired in the formation of the original problems of advanced and postgraduate courses.

Another possibility is to create a new form of degree called "Ph.D.", probably a degree between a master's degree and a doctor's degree. In theory, the new degree can better adapt to the increasing number of doctor's non-traditional work, for example because it requires fewer concentration or different types of research and essay experience

However, in fact, I am convinced that this method is not very good. This proposal is reminiscent of the Science Degree (DSc) provided by several agencies, in hopes that it will be a desirable degree for PhD students seeking non-traditional careers. The important thing is to report the research experience that the employer needs to evaluate the doctorate. Without ready-made demand of a newly introduced degree, students endanger many energies and only find that they have obtained diplomas that are considered to be inferior, critics say that " Issue "may be considered. We conclude that adjusting doctor's degree is more realistic than inventing and introducing a degree.

A solution that allows the system to continuously adjust itself, in a way that does not rely on assessing the accuracy of the number of graduates required in choosing a strategy that makes graduates more diverse and knowledgeable There is. A country collection or a specific region So, for example, a knowledgeable student concludes that the doctor's degree is inappropriate or unnecessary for the work they want, then the admission rate drops accordingly.

Once registered, graduate students may find many reasons for choosing relatively narrow subjects for intensive research. Students are fascinated by knowledge in specific fields and believe that they can be in the most trustworthy research positions in specialized fields. Students may have exciting and educational opportunities to work as innovative research team assistants if the chosen field is consistent with the professor's research interests; You can enrich it immeasurably. We can also provide new research ideas and energy to the research team

The disadvantages of over-specialization in graduate school are not obvious, but it applies to both students and states regardless of whether they become researchers or not. Excessive concentration of specific subareas will limit future contributions to research and may affect future career choices. It is difficult to judge whether the major selected by the initial graduate school is desirable in the job market or at the forefront of an exciting field.

In 1995, NAE and NAS and the National School of Medicine jointly reported about the American science and engineering doctoral program education system and ... "A longer-term global model is reworked to produce a more" multipurpose scientist " "In 2000, NAE returned to this educational theme, and detailed research on engineering education was part of that" 2020 Research Engineer "program. The report concludes that engineering education must be reformed, otherwise American engineers will not be ready for engineering practice. Shortly thereafter, the American Society of Civil Engineers adopted a policy to advocate reconstruction of the academic foundation of civil engineering.

With advances in science and technology, the needs of employers have also changed, and these changes continue to rebuild the job market of scientists and engineers. These changes present challenges to the students as they aim to make informed education and career choices. Science and engineering programs provide guidance to help students plan their career - in particular in a non-academic environment - and to achieve the education necessary to achieve the career goals I will. This booklet is designed for college students who are currently studying at university or graduate students of science and engineering and are studying in the third or fourth year of graduate school education. Content is being considered by a number of student focus groups and advisory committees, including students and representatives of multiple departmental communities. The booklet also introduces scientific and engineering experts involved in various occupations.
