DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Bridges to the Baccalaureate, A Continuing Partnership Program Between California State University, Long Beach (CSULB), Cerritos College and Long Beach City College (LBCC) The goals of the Bridges Program are to increase the quality of preparation and numbers of underrepresented students (URMS) and their successful transition from two major feeder community colleges to CSULB and other universities as they prepare for careers in the biomedical sciences and to strengthen the relationship between CSULB science programs and its to community college partners. The objectives of the Bridges Program are (1) to provide community college students and their family members with an understanding and appreciation of the research experience and increase the number of URMS coming from community colleges to seek careers in biomedical research, (2) to promote their successful transition from the partner community colleges into CSULB or other baccalaureate granting universities, and (3) to strengthen the relationship between the CSULB science programs and its two community college partners. Some of the activities undertaken to meet the objectives include: Providing information about transfer courses to CSULB and other four-year universities, Providing a funded research experience for students during the summer, Providing the students with tools to understand the literature of science, Providing the students with techniques such as poster and PowerPoint presentations, Inviting family members of each Bridges student to visit the research laboratories, Facilitating the CSULB application process and academic advisement with faculty, Enhancing closer communications and mentoring between science faculty of the participating institutions.

描述（由申请人提供）：桥梁的桥梁，这是加利福尼亚州立大学，长滩（CSULB），塞里托斯学院和长滩城市学院（LBCC）之间的持续合作计划，桥梁计划的目标旨在提高准备质量，并从两位主要的学生（URMS）和其他社区的饲养员组成的质量来提高，他们是他们的成功群体（URMS），而他们的其他人则是他们的其他养生者（URMS），而他们的其他饲养者则是供应。生物医学科学，并加强CSULB科学计划与社区大学合作伙伴之间的关系。桥梁计划的目标是（1）为社区大学生及其家人提供对研究经验的理解和欣赏，并增加社区大学的URMS数量，以寻求生物医学研究的职业，（2）促进他们从合作伙伴社区学院成功过渡到CSULB或其他学士学位或其他学院的授予大学，以及（3）之间的关系，并加强了这两个社区的关系。实现目标的一些活动包括：提供有关向Csulb和其他四年制大学进行转学课程的信息，在夏季为学生提供资助的研究经验，为学生提供理解科学文学的工具，为学生提供技术的研究，从参与机构的科学学院之间进行更紧密的沟通和指导。
