  • Abstract
    This presentation will discuss multiple challenges and opportunities that are presented to young investigators to prepare for careers in science and engineering. How can research and education be integrated? How is interdisciplinary research supported? How do graduate students gain value-added skills while obtaining their degrees? These questions will form the base for this presentation and will use examples from projects supported from various programs at the NSF especially in the Division of Graduate Education.
