项目摘要

Complex societal challenges require synthesis of expertise from many academic disciplines and collaboration across multiple institutions. Graduate Ph.D. programs that develop disciplinary experts do not generally provide the context or training for applying narrow expertise in a broader context. This limitation of traditional graduate education programs has created an opportunity to devise programs to prepare PhD students for a range of careers in which STEM expertise is needed for working in broad rather than highly specialized contexts. To address this need and opportunity, the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) is piloting a novel model of professional development for graduate students called Emerging Leaders in Science & Society (ELISS), building a network of collaborative STEM leaders by recruiting graduate students from multiple campuses and disciplines to participate in a 15-month service leadership program. These students collaborate with mentors and community leaders to catalyze new connections between the university and broader community and bring relevant research to bear on a timely challenge. This project is supporting the 2016 ELISS Collaborative Leadership Workshop that will introduce the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for collaborative approaches to problems that cross disciplines, institutions, and geographies. This workshop will convene 22 graduate students from seven campuses for a 4.5-day workshop that will build capacity in the context of planning a "think tank" project that will bring relevant research to bear on pressing challenges in their communities. Materials and results of the network will be shared with an ELISS mentor network at participating campuses and through the AAAS network to make collaborative leadership training available to graduate students more broadly.

复杂的社会挑战需要综合许多学科和跨多个机构的协作的专业知识。研究生博士开发纪律专家的计划通常不提供在更广泛的环境中应用狭窄专业知识的背景或培训。传统研究生教育课程的这种局限性创造了一个机会，可以制定计划，以使博士生为在广泛而不是高度专业的环境中工作所需的一系列职业准备。为了满足这一需求和机会，美国科学发展协会（AAAS）正在驾驶一种新型专业发展模型，以供名为《科学与社会新兴领导者》（ELISS）的新兴领导者（ELISS），通过招募来自多个校园的研究生和学科的研究生来建立一个协作STEM领导者网络，以参加15个月的服务领导力计划。这些学生与导师和社区领袖合作，促进大学与更广泛的社区之间的新联系，并带来相关的研究，以及时挑战。该项目正在支持2016年ELISS协作领导力研讨会，该研讨会将介绍跨学科，机构和地理位置的问题所需的知识，技能和态度。该研讨会将召集来自七个校园的22名研究生举办的4.5天研讨会，该研讨会将在计划“智囊团”项目的背景下建立能力，该项目将带来相关的研究，以承受其社区的紧迫挑战。该网络的材料和结果将与参与校园的Eliss Mentor网络共享，并通过AAAS网络，以使研究生可以更广泛地使用协作领导培训。
