White House and NSF Launch Industry-Embedded PhD Program
New doctoral training model pairs students with industry partners at research universities.

The effort is funded at $47 million and will support hundreds of new doctorates in technical fields through partnerships between industry giants and research universities, with the program beginning this fall.
