项目摘要

The overall goal of ESTEEMED is to increase the diversity of the biomedical, behavioral, and clinical workforce by preparing under-represented (UR) individuals to enter and complete Ph.D. or MD/Ph.D. degrees in these STEM fields. This will be accomplished by educational activities in the first two years of college that focus on research and mentoring experiences so that well-qualified UR undergraduates can enter advanced honors programs and after graduation, be admitted into and complete doctoral programs. Our Science Undergraduate Research Gateway Experience (SURGE) will recruit ten incoming college students each year to participate in a series of summer and academic-year activities over two years to reach this goal including (but not limited to):  An 8-week summer bridge program with a credit-bearing course in scientific computing; a hands-on orientation to Brooklyn College; team-based research modules; building a supportive community of SURGE peers; a team-based project on careers in STEM, including with local biotechnology start-ups; workshops on communicating science; and development of a preliminary Individual Development Plan (IDP).  Multiple quality research experiences at Brooklyn College and at other institutions, including a novel team- based method, Peer-Assisted Team Research (PATR) to actively involve lower division students in planning and completing their own small research projects as preparation for summer externships at research institutions and joining research labs of faculty members at Brooklyn College or Downstate Medical Center.  Supplemental Instruction workshops in all historically-difficult science and mathematics classes.  Consistent use of undergraduate IDPs on 5-, 10- and 15-year time-frames, to keep SURGE students engaged in self-reflection for goal planning and future-oriented strategizing to define the elements of their successful transition from college to the Ph.D. and the careers beyond it.  Workshops and activities to improve written and oral communication skills, critical reading of the research literature, presentations at conferences, and computational skills, among other professional competencies.  Workshops for students on choosing and using mentors effectively and support for faculty to become more effective research advisors and mentors.  Activities to develop psychological awareness of factors such as stereotype threat and micro-aggressions that UR students may encounter in graduate programs.  Development of teams of mentors with faculty and research advisors at our college and externship sites and with UR doctoral recipients via national networks (e.g., NRMN, The Leadership Alliance) and others. These activities will occupy three summers and two full academic years, at which point, students will apply for an advanced honors program, either our recently refunded NIH MARC program or our Scholar’s Program. Both require a strong academic record and research leading to an honors thesis in preparation for graduate study.

ESTEEMED 的总体目标是增加生物医学、行为和临床劳动力的多样性通过帮助代表性不足的人进入并完成这些领域的博士学位或医学博士/博士学位。 STEM 领域将通过大学头两年的教育活动来实现。研究和指导经验，使合格的UR本科生能够获得高级荣誉学位课程，毕业后，进入并完成我们的科学本科课程。研究门户体验 (SURGE) 每年将招募 10 名即将入学的大学生参加为了实现这一目标，在两年内开展一系列夏季和学年活动，包括（但不限于）：为期 8 周的夏季桥梁课程，包含科学计算实践学分课程；布鲁克林学院的定位；基于团队的研究模块；建立 SURGE 的支持社区；同行；关于 STEM 职业的团队项目，包括与当地生物技术初创企业的研讨会；传播科学；以及制定初步的个人发展计划（IDP）。  在布鲁克林学院和其他机构的多种高质量研究经验，包括一个新颖的团队- 基于方法，同伴协助团队研究（PATR）积极让低年级学生参与规划并完成自己的小型研究项目，为暑期研究实习做准备机构并加入布鲁克林学院或南部医疗中心教职人员的研究实验室。  所有历史性困难的科学和数学课程的补充教学研讨会。  在 5 年、10 年和 15 年时间范围内一致使用本科 IDP，以留住 SURGE 学生进行目标规划和面向未来的战略的自我反思，以定义他们的要素从大学到博士学位的成功过渡以及其后的职业生涯。  提高书面和口头沟通技巧、批判性阅读研究的研讨会和活动文献、会议演讲、计算技能以及其他专业能力。  为学生举办关于有效选择和使用导师以及支持教师变得更加优秀的研讨会有效的研究顾问和导师。  培养对刻板印象威胁和微攻击等因素的心理认识的活动 UR 学生在研究生课程中可能会遇到的问题。  在我们的大学和实习地点建立由教师和研究顾问组成的导师团队，通过国家网络（例如 NRMN、领导力联盟）等与 UR 博士获得者进行交流。这些活动将占用三个暑假和两个完整学年，届时学生将申请高级荣誉计划，要么是我们最近退款的 NIH MARC 计划，要么是我们的学者计划。需要良好的学术记录和研究成果，以撰写荣誉论文，为研究生学习做准备。
