DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of California at Riverside is one of the most diverse campuses and is located in one of the most rapidly growing and diverse regions of the United States. Most of the undergraduate students at UCR come from this region. Thus there is a broad base of students from which to select and promote interest in the biomedically-related sciences and a research career in the sciences. The Overall Goal of the MARC U* Program at the University of California Riverside is to increase the number of undergraduate minority students pursuing a Ph.D. degree and a research career in the biomedically-related sciences. The Measurable Objective of the MARC U* Program is to increase the number of minority students going into Ph.D. Programs by up to 100% within three years of graduation. The Overall Institutional Goal is to promote undergraduate research and to produce a large number of women and under-represented minority scientists from UCR. This grant includes a pre-MARC Development Program to increase the eligible pool of Trainees. The goals of the MARC U* Training grant are the following: 1} to increase the pool of minority students eligible to become MARC U* trainees by increasing the fraction of lower division minority science majors at UCR attaining a GPA of 3.0 by 25% or higher in Introductory Biology by 25% from a basis of 16%; 2) increase the number of qualified students applying to the MARC U* Training Program by doubling the number of qualified minority students who apply to the MARC U* Training Program from an average of 7 to at least 14; 3) prepare MARC U* Trainees to become competitive for admission to and success in graduate school by achieving a steady state wherein up to 100% of the Trainees will be competitive for admission into a PhD program as measured by GRE, GPA and research experience; 4} encourage MARC U* Trainees to apply to and graduate from PhD programs by increasing up to 100% MARC U* Trainees who apply to and are accepted into PhD research programs.

描述（由申请人提供）：加州大学河滨分校是最多元化的校园之一，位于美国发展最快、最多元化的地区之一。 UCR 的大部分本科生都来自该地区。因此，有广泛的学生基础可供选择和促进对生物医学相关科学和科学研究职业的兴趣。加州大学河滨分校 MARC U* 项目的总体目标是增加攻读博士学位的少数族裔本科生的数量。生物医学相关科学的学位和研究生涯。 MARC U* 计划的可衡量目标是增加攻读博士学位的少数族裔学生的数量。毕业后三年内课程率高达 100%。总体机构目标是促进本科生研究并从加州大学河滨分校培养大量女性和代表性不足的少数族裔科学家。这笔赠款包括 MARC 之前的发展计划，以增加合格的学员人数。 MARC U* 培训补助金的目标如下： 1} 通过将 UCR 低年级少数族裔科学专业 GPA 达到 3.0 的比例增加 25%，增加有资格成为 MARC U* 培训生的少数族裔学生人数生物学入门课程在 16% 的基础上提高了 25%； 2) 增加申请 MARC U* 培训计划的合格学生人数，将申请 MARC U* 培训计划的合格少数民族学生人数增加一倍，从平均 7 人增加到至少 14 人； 3) 通过实现稳定状态，让 MARC U* 学员具备进入研究生院并取得成功的竞争力，根据 GRE、GPA 和研究经验衡量，多达 100% 的学员将具有进入博士课程的竞争力； 4} 通过将申请并被博士研究项目录取的 MARC U* 学员增加至 100%，鼓励 MARC U* 学员申请并从博士项目毕业。
