项目摘要

ABSTRACT The proposed ““Bioengineering Research and Interdisciplinary Training – ESTEEMED" (BRITE) program, with an emphasis on Orthotics, Prosthetics and Rehabilitation represents a major research education initiative for Kennesaw State University to engage students with diverse backgrounds in positive and impactful undergraduate research experiences that empower them with tools of success to pursue PhD degrees for research careers in academia and industry. Over a four-year period, we will recruit underrepresented minorities, persons with disabilities, women and economically- and socially-disadvantaged students, and expose them to spheres of engineering and clinical discovery to provoke heightened and sustained interest in research inquiry. The program will immerse students into the clinical realm of orthotics, prosthetics, and rehabilitation through interactions with users of assistive technology, clinical rotations, faculty mentoring, a Capstone project, and work on an interdisciplinary research team. At the end of the four-year program, we will have trained student participants on essential research skills who will be well-prepared to eventually serve as the next technological innovators and leaders in bioengineering with more diverse and enriched perspectives of possibilities. We aim to accomplish, measure, and assess the following main objectives: 1) We will recruit 32 academically-outstanding high school students from the target underrepresented groups for this proposed research training program through partnerships with a major state government sponsored STEM education program, a private Georgia STEM education foundation, and a regional high school STEM administrator. 2) We will implement a vigorous participant retention plan that will be ongoing and administered by an Academic Success advisory team. 3) We will offer motivating, rigorous and impactful research training experiences through the following core elements: summer bridge program, summer research experience, honors program, faculty mentorship, and Capstone project. 4) The trainees will participate actively on an interdisciplinary research team. 5) The students will obtain dedicated faculty research mentoring and career counseling to ready them for graduate studies. 6) The trainees will increase their research competency skills through specialized instruction and practice. 7) Graduating BRITE participants will gain admission into masters/doctoral programs related to bioengineering.

抽象的拟议的“生物工程研究和跨学科培训 - 受人尊敬”（Brite）计划着重于矫形器，假肢和康复代表一个主要肯尼索州立大学的研究教育计划，使学生与潜水员互动积极和有影响力的本科研究经验的背景可以增强他们的能力借助成功的工具，可以为学术界和行业的研究职业购买博士学位。在四年期间，我们将招募代表性不足的少数民族，患有疾病的人，妇女以及经济和社会养育的学生，并将其暴露于工程和临床发现，引起对研究的增强和持续的兴趣询问。该计划将使学生陷入矫形，假肢和通过与辅助技术，临床轮换和教职员工的用户进行互动来康复指导，一个顶峰项目，并在跨学科研究团队中工作。在四年计划，我们将培训学生参与者的基本研究技能，他们将准备好最终成为下一个技术创新者和领导者生物工程具有更多的潜水员和丰富的可能性观点。我们旨在完成，衡量和评估以下主要目标：1）我们将招募32 为此，来自目标代表性不足的小组的高中生学术界通过与主要州政府的伙伴关系提出的研究培训计划赞助的STEM教育计划，乔治亚州私人STEM教育基金会和区域高中STEM管理员。 2）我们将实施有力的参与者保留计划将持续并由学术成功咨询团队管理。 3）我们会的通过以下核心提供动力，严格而有影响力的研究培训经验元素：夏季桥梁计划，夏季研究经验，荣誉计划，教师指导和顶峰项目。 4）学员将积极参加跨学科研究团队。 5）学生将获得专门的教师研究指导和职业为他们准备研究生学习的咨询。 6）培训将增加他们的研究通过专业指导和练习能力技能。 7）即将毕业的Brite 参与者将获得与生物工程有关的硕士/博士课程的录取。
