Environmental Aquatic Resource Sensing Basic Science, Business Education and Outreach

What is IGERT? IGERT = Integrative Graduate Education and Research Traineeship Funded by the National Science Foundation IGERT is the National Science Foundation's flagship interdisciplinary training program, educating U.S. Ph.D. scientists and engineers by building on the foundations of their disciplinary knowledge with interdisciplinary training.

What is EARS IGERT? interdisciplinary, dual-institution (Kent State and Miami University) Environmental Aquatic Resource Sensing (EARS). theme training of doctoral students in environmental sensing, focused on freshwater resources, accentuated with business experiences, to develop professionals equipped for diverse careers.

An incremental process How did we get to this point?

Participating Units The sciences Miamigeology, geography, chemistry, zoology, microbiology Kent---geology, geography, chemistry, biology chemical physics Business Technology and computer science

Our vision Training a new generation of scientists that can talk across disciplines and to those in business Help prepare doctoral students for future careers in a range of areas Helping push sensor technology and its use forward in environmental research

Program Elements

The pieces Curriculum Interactions with and among trainees Cohort project Networking Newsletter, web page Outreach Career development Research!

The curriculum This workshop Lake Metabolism Sensor technology Introduction to Environmental Sensors Wireless Sensor Technology Chitra Rajagopal Business and technology transfer Greg Wilson, Don Coates, Rick Schroath (Entrepreneurship Extravaganza) Ethics And all the usual disciplinary requirements

Pedagogy strategies of instruction Use of short burst format Hands on, active learning Learning by doing Team work Build connections with the real world
