The National Academy of
Sciences, with co-sponsorship from the National Academy of
Engineering; Institute of Medicine; and Committee on
Science, Engineering, and Public Policy (COSEPUP), held a
National Convocation on Doctoral Science and Engineering
Education titled, "From Discussion to Action: Meeting the
Needs of Future Generations of Graduate Scientists and
Engineers." The convocation took place on June 15, 1996 at
the National Academy of Sciences Building in Washington, DC.
Through the convocation proceedings, the Academy--in
conjunction with many science and engineering disciplinary
societies, employers, and university and student
organizations--highlighted new strategies and provided
information individuals need to take additional steps to
improve the doctoral science and engineering education
system.
