Graue to Head Grad Training

June 12 , 2006

Beginning this fall, Professor of Curriculum and Instruction Beth Graue will assume the role of WCER Director of Graduate Training. In this role she will enrich the environment for preparing graduate students at WCER by coordinating training activities across projects, content areas, and methodological approaches. As part of this new role, Graue will relocate the Doctoral Research Program to WCER. This program, developed with funds from the Spencer Foundation, is offered to select students in the School of Education and has been cited as a national model of interdisciplinary, multimethod doctoral preparation in education. It will complement WCER's Interdisciplinary Training Program, which brings social science doctoral students to research in education sciences and has a quantitative rather than a multimethod focus. One of Graue's first tasks will be to assess the needs of WCER graduate students from the perspectives of students and faculty.
