Project Crossover
What We Do
Project Crossover is a mixed methods project that looks to uncover the mechanisms in transitioning from a graduate student to scientist in chemistry and physics.
Primarily, this project seeks to address three main questions:
- Is there a common approach to educating graduate students, and are these commonalities across programs linked to graduating more productive scientists?
- What criteria are applied to gauge whether students are prepared to become independent researchers?
- How do the impressions of advisors and graduate students differ?
This project has continued beyond the original three-year plan. Data from the project is continually being analyzed and results disseminated.
