项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The minority population in Texas surpassed the non-Anglo population in 2004, and is projected to increase substantially in the coming years. Projections for educational attainment in these ethnic populations, historically low because of socioeconomic and other factors, suggest continued disparity among minorities for college, graduate and professional school enrollment. Entry of underrepresented minority students into doctoral study in the biomedical sciences in Texas, and indeed, in the nation, remains low despite population changes in Texas, the second most populous in the country. There is an urgent need to train an increased number of health professionals, including biomedical scientists, to serve the minority population in Texas in the near future.
UNTHSC is a leader among the health science centers in Texas in training minority biomedical scientists. We have developed an integrated plan to increase the number of minorities in biomedical research. The goal of our Post-Baccalaureate Research Education Program and Retention Enhancement (PREPARE) program is to provide underrepresented minority individuals who have received undergraduate degrees in science a challenging, focused post-baccalaureate experience that will prepare them for acceptance into doctoral programs and allow them to successfully complete these programs, thus obtaining their doctoral degrees.
We have developed the following measurable objectives along with a detailed evaluation plan: 1.
Recruitment/Matriculation. The PREPARE Program will maintain ten post-baccalaureate trainees with an estimated five new trainees admitted each year. 2. Research Experience. PREP trainees will participate in frontline research in biomedical sciences under the mentorship of outstanding faculty. 3. GRE Preparation. PREP trainees will be given training to improve their GRE scores. 4. Academic Preparedness. PREP trainees will receive a thorough academic preparation program that provides the tools for success in a doctoral program in biomedical sciences. 5. Didactic Exposure. PREP trainees will receive coursework to prepare for the rigors of graduate education in biomedical sciences. 6. Graduate School Admission. A high percentage of PREP trainees (at least 80%) will enter doctoral level programs in biomedical sciences.
In order to achieve these objectives in the award period, we have developed detailed plans for training, mentoring and evaluation as described in the application. Our expectations are that the PREPARE program will increase the number of minority students entering PhD programs in the biomedical sciences area, increase student retention in the PhD programs through the academic and laboratory preparation provided to the PREP trainees, and result in increased number of minority PhDs in biomedical sciences.
描述(由申请人提供):德克萨斯州的少数族裔人口在2004年超过了非安格洛人口,预计未来几年将大幅增加。这些民族人口中的教育程度的预测,由于社会经济和其他因素历史降低,这表明少数群体在大学,研究生和专业学校入学中持续差异。尽管德克萨斯州的人口变化,这是该国第二大人口最多的人口变化,但代表人数不足的少数族裔学生就进入了德克萨斯州生物医学科学的博士研究。迫切需要在不久的将来培训越来越多的卫生专业人员,包括生物医学科学家,为德克萨斯州的少数民族人口提供服务。
UNTHSC是德克萨斯州健康科学中心的领导者,培训少数生物医学科学家。我们制定了一项综合计划,以增加生物医学研究中的少数民族数量。我们的学后研究教育课程和保留增强计划的目标是提供代表性不足的少数群体,这些个人获得了科学领域的本科学位,这是一种具有挑战性的,专注的,重点的后库后经验,可以为他们准备接受博士学位,并让他们成功地完成这些课程,从而获得这些博士学位,从而获得这些博士学位。
我们已经制定了以下可测量的目标以及详细的评估计划:1。
招聘/入学。准备计划将维持十名毕业后的学员,每年估计有5名新学员。 2。研究经验。在杰出教师的指导下,预学员将参加生物医学科学的一线研究。 3。GRE准备。准备学员将接受培训以提高他们的GRE分数。 4。学术准备。预科学员将获得一项彻底的学术准备计划,为生物医学科学博士学位课程提供成功的工具。 5。教学曝光。预科学员将获得课程,为生物医学科学研究生教育的严格做准备。 6。入学研究生院。很高比例的预学员(至少80%)将进入生物医学科学的博士学位课程。
为了在奖励期内实现这些目标,我们已经制定了应用程序中所述的培训,指导和评估的详细计划。我们的期望是,准备计划将增加在生物医学科学领域进入博士学位课程的少数族裔学生的数量,通过提供给预科学员的学术和实验室准备,增加学生在博士学位课程中的保留,并导致生物医学科学中的少数族裔博士学位增加。
