However, thesestudents are not being trained in a so-called “technical area” within their discipline and,hence, it is unknown at this point how effective such training will be in landing a tenure-track faculty position. Another way to educate graduate students who plan to enteracademia is through a formal course during their graduate studies. Universities such asSouth Carolina and West Virginia offer these classes as an elective course in theirrespective Chemical Engineering departments.

It is thusnot specific to any one field of study (a few sample product ideas are shown in Figure 1).
