DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The mission of the UMES MBRS RISE Program is to enhance the skills and competitiveness of underrepresented minority students and faculty in the Department of Natural Sciences (DNS) in biomedical research. The MBRS RISE Program will select 20 students and 6 members of faculty to fulfill the mission above through the following specific goals and objectives: Student Development -- Provide professional development opportunities to students in the biomedical sciences in the Department of Natural Sciences at UMES Objective i - Increase the number of DNS students who participate in professional development activities from 38 to 58 Objective ii - Increase the number of DNS students who are mentored by DNS faculty from 38 to 58 Objective iii - Enhance the academic support and preparation of DNS students in the biomedical sciences at UMES through the introduction of 4 new courses and 9 workshops. Faculty Development -- Provide meaningful professional development opportunities to minority faculty in DNS Objective i - Increase the number of active collaborations between UMES minority faculty and faculty at major research institutions from 1 to 6 in order to enhance access to research opportunities Objective ii - Increase the number of sabbaticals granted to science minority faculty from 1 to 3 Objective iii - Increase scholarly productivity of DNS minority faculty from 4 to 8 presentations in biomedical sciences delivered at scientific conferences; and refereed publications in biomedical sciences from 1 to 3 each year of the Program period Objective iv - Increase the rate of DNS minority faculty participation in continuing education courses from 1 to 3 each year of the proposed project period. Institution Development -- Enhance the instructional infrastructure in biomedical sciences in the Department of Natural Sciences at UMES Objective i - Equip the DNS Computer Resource Room (room 2119) with the addition of 20 desktop computers and 2 accompanying printers Objective ii - Increase the number of classrooms in DNS with installed docking stations and accessories including liquid display projection devices from 1 to 7. This program will emphasize faculty development through collaborations with research-intensive institutions. The retention of student interest in biomedical sciences, through the involvement in extramural research will be a major focus of the project. At the end of the project period, 20 students will have matriculated into doctoral degree programs nationwide.

描述（由申请人提供）：UMES MBRS RISE计划的使命是提高生物医学研究中自然科学系（DNS）中代表性不足的少数群体学生和教职员工的技能和竞争力。 MBRS Rise计划将通过以下特定目标选择20名学生和6名教职员工来实现上述任务： 学生发展 - 向UMES自然科学系的生物医学科学的学生提供专业发展机会 目标I-将参加专业发展活动的DNS学生数量从38增加到58 目标II-将DNS教师指导的DNS学生数量从38增加到58 目标III-通过引入4个新课程和9个研讨会，增强了UMES生物医学科学中DNS学生的学术支持和准备。 教师发展 - 为DNS的少数群体提供有意义的职业发展机会 目标I-增加主要研究机构的UMES少数群体与教职员工之间的积极合作数量从1到6，以增强获得研究机会的机会 目标II-将授予科学少数学院的休假数量从1增加到3 目标III-将DNS少数学院的学术生产力从科学会议提供的生物医学科学的4个演讲提高到8个演讲；并在计划期的每年1到3个生物医学科学的出版物 目标IV-将DNS少数族裔教师参与继续教育课程的比率从拟议项目期间的每年1到3。 机构发展 - 增强UMES自然科学系生物医学科学的教学基础设施 目标I-装备DNS计算机资源室（2119室），还增加了20台台式计算机和2台随附的打印机 目标II-增加具有安装的对接站和配件（包括液体显示投影设备）的DNS中的教室数量从1到7。 该计划将通过与研究密集型机构的合作来强调教师的发展。通过参与校外研究，学生对生物医学科学的兴趣将是该项目的重点。在项目期结束时，有20名学生将纳入全国博士学位课程。
