项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Arizona proposes to implement a comprehensive program that will enhance our ability to increase the number of underrepresented minority students who obtain doctoral degrees in the biomedical sciences. Through the proposed IMSD-funded Initiative for Minority Ph.D.s program, the UA's Graduate College seeks (1) to provide research skills and motivation to enter biomedical Ph.D. programs to 80 underrepresented students (20 in each year of the program plus 5 supported by other universities) attending universities throughout the U.S. including Puerto Rico and Hawaii; (2) to increase the number of UA underrepresented minority graduate students enrolled in Ph.D. programs in thirteen biomedical programs by 44 students in 4 years (10 new students in years 1 and 2 and 12 new students in years 3 and 4), and provide them the financial and academic support to ensure that they complete the Ph.D. in a timely fashion; (3) to test whether addition of a thematic focus that explicitly links laboratory research with health problems disproportionately borne by minority communities increases the motivation of underrepresented students to enter and finish doctoral degrees in biomedical fields, and (4) to identify psychosocial factors that may help predict graduate student success and Ph.D. completion. The program proposes two components: an annual Summer Research Opportunity Program for juniors and seniors attending universities throughout the U.S. including Puerto Rico and Hawaii during the months of June-August, and a graduate component, the Sloan Scholars program, that supports first year student stipends, requires 3-4 laboratory rotations, and provides additional skills training, conference travel, and dissertation supplies support for 44 Ph.D. students in thirteen biomedical graduate programs at UA. Each of the thirteen graduate programs collaborating in this effort has committed four years of financial support to IMP students as well as faculty salaries. The Graduate College has committed tuition waivers, health insurance, and $15,000 per year toward the implementation of an aggressive recruitment plan. Both formative and summative evaluations will be integral parts of the program.

描述（由申请人提供）：亚利桑那大学提议实施一项综合计划，该计划将增强我们增加获得生物医学博士学位的少数族裔学生数量的能力。通过拟议的由IMSD资助的少数族裔博士计划，UA研究生院力求(1)提供研究技能和进入生物医学博士学位的动力。为就读于美国各地大学（包括波多黎各和夏威夷）的 80 名代表性不足的学生（该计划每年 20 名加上其他大学支持的 5 名）提供项目； (2)增加UA代表性不足的少数民族研究生攻读博士学位的数量。四年内由 44 名学生（第一年和第二年有 10 名新生，第三年和第四年有 12 名新生）开设 13 个生物医学项目，并为他们提供经济和学术支持，以确保他们完成博士学位。及时； (3) 测试增加一个明确将实验室研究与少数族裔社区不成比例地承担的健康问题联系起来的主题焦点是否会增加代表性不足的学生进入并完成生物医学领域博士学位的动机，以及 (4) 确定可能影响健康问题的心理社会因素帮助预测研究生和博士学位的成功。完成。该计划提出两个组成部分：每年 6 月至 8 月期间，为在美国各地大学（包括波多黎各和夏威夷）就读的大三和大四学生提供年度夏季研究机会计划，以及研究生部分——斯隆学者计划，为一年级学生提供奖学金，需要 3-4 次实验室轮换，并为 44 名博士提供额外的技能培训、会议旅行和论文用品支持。 UA 十三个生物医学研究生课程的学生。参与这项工作的 13 个研究生项目均承诺为 IMP 学生提供四年的经济支持以及教师工资。研究生院承诺减免学费、提供健康保险，并每年提供 15,000 美元，以实施积极的招聘计划。形成性评价和总结性评价都将是该计划的组成部分。
