项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Fisk-Vanderbilt Master's to-PhD Bridge program was created to address the underrepresentation of minorities in STEM disciplines by enabling these students to earn a Master's degree at Fisk as a stepping-stone to the PhD program at Vanderbilt. This proposal aims to take the elements that have worked so well for physics and astronomy in the Bridge program and use them to strengthen and expand the Biology, Chemistry, and Biophysics tracks. The overall goal of this program will be to broaden participation of underrepresented minority students in the fields of Biology, Chemistry and Bio-Physics, to develop methods that increase the preparation of students at Fisk for entering Vanderbilt, and to give track the professional development of each student, including training on the responsible conduct of research. The greatest evidence of Fisk and Vanderbilt Institutional commitment is that the Bridge Program has been operating for 8 years. Both universities have invested considerable time and money into the success of the program. In turn, as our students are now graduating with PhDs and moving into academia and industry we are delivering on that investment. This proposal will be a significant step in ensuring the achievements to date continue and expand bringing more biomedical sciences student into the Bridge family.

描述（由申请人提供）：创建了Fisk-Vanderbilt Master的TO-PHD Bridge计划，以解决STEM学科中少数群体的代表性不足，通过使这些学生能够在Vanderbilt的PhD Program上获得Fisk的硕士学位。该建议旨在采用在桥梁计划中对物理和天文学效果很好的元素，并利用它们来增强和扩展生物学，化学和生物物理学轨道。该计划的总体目标是扩大代表性不足的少数族裔学生在生物学，化学和生物形态学领域的参与，以开发提高菲斯克学生为进入范德比尔特的学生准备的方法，并为每种学生的专业发展，包括对负责任的研究进行培训。 Fisk和Vanderbilt机构承诺的最大证据是该桥梁计划已经运作了8年。两所大学都将大量的时间和金钱投入到计划的成功上。反过来，随着我们的学生现在正在获得博士学位并进入学术界和行业的毕业，我们正在投入这项投资。该提案将是确保迄今为止的成就继续前进并扩大的重要一步，将更多的生物医学学生学生带入了桥梁家庭。
