1980s, ‘convergence’ has become a familiar term in conversationson science and engineering policy. This was, of course, a result of multiple factors that includethe rise of ‘Big Science’ projects such as the Human Genome Project, the digital revolutionacross a range of scientific disciplines, and the growing awareness of the interconnected natureof scientific, environmental, and social challenges. While the idea of convergence offers a general framework for the generation andintegration of knowledge that needs to exist beyond disciplinary boundaries, the initial emphasiswas on the overlapping areas of technological research among nanotechnology, biotechnology,information technology, and cognitive science [8]. In 2016, the U.S. National

However, despite existing programs that bridge university research and the real world,there is a lack of deep training of PhD students in the skill of creating value through their research.We propose a new scalable framework, Graduate Translational Engineering Research, that givesPhD students the opportunity to train deeply in the process of value creation by incorporating aninterdisciplinary PhD thesis committee and qualitative end-user study methods in the formulationof their PhD research proposal. The proposed framework involves PhD students conducting end-user studies early in their program to gain insights into the needs and challenges associated withthe knowledge or technology they are developing.

Despitegrowing research on innovation capacities among undergraduates in monodisciplinary settingsnationally and globally e.g., [3],[4]. Mayhew et al.

Innovation capacities encompass a range of cognitive, intrapersonal, and social domains,including creative cognition, persuasive communication, and intention to innovate, which enableindividuals to generate and apply novel ideas in diverse contexts [6]. The development of thesecapacities is not a uniform
