Integrating Team Science into the STEM Graduate Training Experience
This project addressed team collaboration challenges by developing materials to train graduate students to work in teams and by measuring the effectiveness of these materials. The project took a novel approach to curriculum development by drawing on best practices in team training from a wide range of sources such as the healthcare industry, aviation, and the military. Adaptation of these materials to meet the needs of graduate students will ensure that the students become effective team members and leaders who can advance science and engineering throughout their careers.
