Project Summary Brooklyn College’s U-RISE proposal aims to increase the diversity of our science workforce by providing individuals from groups historically under-represented in STEM with the preparation, confidence and self- efficacy to pursue graduate studies and succeed in obtaining doctoral degrees and launching a STEM career. About half of Brooklyn College’s students are eligible for U-RISE based on race/ethnicity or low-income criteria. We strive for (1) 98% of U-RISE trainees to obtain baccalaureate degrees (adjusted from 100% because of the deep impact of the pandemic in New York City); (2) 60% of U-RISE graduates to matriculate into doctoral programs. Out of these, our objective is that at least 90% will complete their doctoral degrees. Overall, we aim for over 50% of our U-RISE trainees to eventually attain doctoral degrees. We have recruited 29 faculty members, including eight from under-represented groups themselves, to serve as U-RISE mentors. Participating mentors are profoundly committed to undergraduate research. Students will be recruited into the program in their sophomore or junior years. Approximately 80 trainees will be served over the five-year tenure of this program. Meaningful faculty-mentored research experiences are at the core of our program. Trainees will participate in research both at Brooklyn College during the academic year and at R1 institutions during the summer. Moreover, trainees will be advised and mentored by program staff as well as faculty. Further, they will receive instruction in research design, statistics, responsible conduct of research, rigor and reproducibility, scientific communication, study skills, and mentee responsibilities among other topics. We will also include activities to promote holistic student wellbeing (mental health and social support, family involvement) as well as activities for professional development. This U-RISE program will synergize with other undergraduate research programs in STEM on campus via the Center for Achievement in Science Education. The Brooklyn College U-RISE program will improve upon a tradition of excellence and a wide-array of activities set by a long-standing MARC program by: (1) recruiting students at earlier stages of training, (2) training faculty in mentorship practices and (3) supporting important skills such as biomedical computing and scientific communication, among others.

项目概要 布鲁克林学院的 U-RISE 提案旨在通过提供 来自历史上在 STEM 中代表性不足的群体的个人，他们有准备、有信心和自我 攻读研究生并成功获得博士学位并开展 STEM 职业的功效。 根据种族/民族或低收入标准，布鲁克林学院大约一半的学生有资格参加 U-RISE。 我们力争（1）98%的U-RISE学员获得学士学位（根据100%调整） 纽约市疫情的深刻影响）；(2) 60% 的 U-RISE 毕业生考入博士学位 其中，我们的目标是至少 90% 的人能够完成博士学位。 超过 50% 的 U-RISE 学员最终获得博士学位。 我们招募了 29 名教职人员，其中 8 名来自代表性不足的群体，作为 U-RISE 导师将致力于本科生研究。 大约 80 名新生或三年级学员将在整个项目中接受培训。 该计划的任期为五年。 有意义的教师指导的研究经验是我们项目的核心。 学年期间在布鲁克林学院进行研究，夏季则在 R1 机构进行研究。 此外，学员还将得到项目工作人员和教师的建议和指导。 研究设计、统计、负责任的研究行为、严谨性和可重复性、科学性的指导 我们还将包括沟通、学习技巧和学员责任等主题的活动。 促进学生的整体福祉（心理健康和社会支持、家庭参与）以及活动 该 U-RISE 项目将与其他本科生研究产生协同作用。 通过科学教育成就中心在校园内开展 STEM 课程。 布鲁克林学院 U-RISE 项目将继承卓越传统并开展广泛的活动 由长期的 MARC 计划通过以下方式设定：(1) 在培训的早期阶段招募学生，(2) 培训 教师指导实践和（3）支持重要技能，例如生物医学计算和科学 沟通等。
