Project Scholars Sample Clauses

Project Scholars. Lead: MSU Location: study based in MSU, activities in all FtF states Justification: One of the Project’s goals is to train young Nigerian scholars to support the provision of evidence-based policy recommendations using rigorous analytical methods. To achieve this, the Project Scholars program brings young Nigerian scholars and their advisors to MSU. Over the first four years of the Project, the potential of the scholars’ program to yield benefits beyond the schol- ars; to their departments, institutions and Nigeria more broadly has been demonstrated. The 13 scholars who have gone through the Scholars Program have trained over 1,000 Nigerians on data analysis and research methods. In year 4 alone, the Project Scholars who had been trained and mentored on the software “R” for data analysis were able to train over 100 people on “R”. The experience executing the program has revealed that sustainable capacity development requires more than taking classes and engagement with MSU faculty while at MSU. Sustained engagement with scholars at multiple levels has been necessary to really develop the proficiency and ability of scholars to conduct high quality research and/or to train others (and share more generally, what they have learned while at MSU). The Project has observed that research and analytical proficiency of scholars increase significantly through their engagement with senior researchers on the various steps of the Policy Project’s collaborative research and analysis. This has proven to further strengthen their writing skills and thought processes, complementing the formal training received through classes. So far, these young scholars have also been mentored to produce over 30 research publications. In year 4, the Project engaged scholars in several of its dissemination activities in the FCT and FTF focus states. All these experiences are key for the development of the scholars’ ability to design and conduct high quality research and train others on the same. They also support the expansion of Project stakeholder engagement.
