The NSF Sponsored Workshop

11/10/2021

National Science Foundation (NSF), National Professional Science Master’s Association (NPSMA) and Council of Graduate Schools (CGS) present the WORKSHOP 

This workshop (Nov 10, 2021) was supported by the NSF (Award Abstracts #1940221, #193934) through a collaborative grant to the NPSMA (P.I. Deborah Silver, Rutgers) and CGS (P.I. Hironao Okahana). Prevalent in PhD and Postdoctoral programs, IDPs are not at all common in science master's programs. The short time frames to completion and workforce development aspects of STEM master's degrees present distinctive conditions that call for the creation of specialized IDPs for their students. The goal of the workshop was to share what is known about IDPs, to learn how to apply them, and to explore elements for a STEM MS IDP template.
