Supplement U-RISE Delaware State University: Student Training in Academic Research (STAR) Summary: This proposal is to request supplemental support for designing complementary online activities that will be integrated synergistically with those of the U-RISE program at Delaware State University (DSU). These activities are in response to the unexpected COVID-19 outbreak and its impact on DSU and U-RISE program, compelling the program to consider offering many of its skill-development workshops online and to design new computational-driven training modules virtually. The U-RISE training site at DSU is established as a catalyst to attract, and to closely train, up to 12 undergraduate students per year in any of the biomedical research disciplines, totaling up to 36 trainees over the five-year period of the grant. Our STAR Scholars will be mentored and motivated to ultimately pursue their PhD degree and careers related to biomedical research. DSU, an Historically Black University (HBCU), enrolls about 4800 undergraduate students, with over 70% being members of racial and ethnic minority groups that are traditionally underrepresented in STEM. Based on best practices from the literature, we will implement an educational and research training program that will support successful graduation of our scholars and ensure that they are accepted to biomedically-related graduate programs, are motivated to attend, and are prepared for success. Our STAR Scholars will participate in two summer research internships, first on the DSU campus, and the second at a research intensive institution. Through the IDeA Networks of Biomdical Research and other connnections, we have identified a large number of partner institutions who will host our STAR Scholars in their summer undergraduate research programs, ensuring that they are matched with trained, experienced mentors. To support our Scholars, we have designed a series of activities, courses, and workshops that will provide knowledge and skills development to support academic success at DSU and in graduate school. Our Scholars will be supported by strong, culturally-competent mentors, who have completed an on-line mentoring course and participate in interventions shown to minimize implicit bias. To increase STEM engagement and self-efficacy and strengthen critical thinking skills among the broader STEM student community at DSU, our program supports professional development to faculty to integrate course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) into introductory STEM courses. We expect these early research experiences to increase retention and motivate more students toward careers in research. We aim that 90% of our DSU-STAR trainees graduate with a bachelor’s degree in a STEM discipline, at least 60% of our trainees pursue a biomedical Ph.D or Ph.D/M.D. degree at a research intensive institution, and at least 80% of those matriculants obtain their degrees. Furthermore, the DSU STAR program will also support initiatives to increase the four and five year graduation rate from 25% to 35% and 38% to 50%. Finally, we will establish assessment mechanisms to evaluate the program, to ensure its continuous success.

补充U-Rise特拉华州立大学：学术研究的学生培训（Star） 概括： 该建议是为设计完善的在线活动提供补充支持 与特拉华州立大学（DSU）的U-Rise计划协同整合。这些 活动是针对意外的Covid-19爆发及其对DSU和U-Rise的影响 计划，迫使该计划考虑在线提供许多技能开发研讨会和 虚拟设计新的计算驱动培训模块。 DSU的U-Rise培训网站是 作为吸引和训练的催化剂，每年最多12个本科生 在赠款的五年期间，生物医学研究学科总数多达36名。我们的 明星学者将被修复并有动力最终攻读其博士学位和与职业相关的学位 生物医学研究。 DSU是一所历史悠久的黑人大学（HBCU），约有4800本大学 学生，超过70％是种族和少数民族群体的成员 STEM的代表性不足。根据文献的最佳实践，我们将实施教育 和研究培训计划，该计划将支持我们的学者成功毕业并确保他们 被生物医学相关的研究生课程接受，有动力参加，并准备 成功。我们的明星学者将参加两次夏季研究实习，首先在DSU校园内参加 第二个是研究密集型机构。通过生物研究和 其他联系，我们已经确定了许多将主持我们的明星的合作伙伴机构 学者在夏季的本科研究计划中，确保他们接受训练有素的匹配， 经验丰富的导师。为了支持我们的学者，我们设计了一系列的活动，课程 将提供知识和技能发展以支持DSU和IN的学术成就的讲习班 研究所。我们的学者将得到强大的，具有文化能力的导师的支持，他们 完成了一门在线心理课程，并参与了显示的干预措施，以最大程度地减少隐性偏见。 提高STEM参与度和自我效能感以及强大的批判性思维能力 DSU的更广泛的STEM学生社区，我们的计划支持教师的专业发展 基于课程的本科研究经验（治疗）纳入简介STEM课程。我们 期望这些早期的研究经历增加保留率，并激励更多的学生从事职业 研究。我们的目标是90％的DSU明星学员毕业于STEM学士学位 学科，至少有60％的学员攻读生物医学博士学位或博士学位/M.D。研究学位 密集型机构，至少80％的入学药获得了学位。此外，DSU Star计划还将支持将四年级和五年成绩从25％提高到的计划 35％和38％至50％。最后，我们将建立评估机制来评估该计划，以确保 它的持续成功。
