DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this research education program is to increase the number of underrepresented minority (UR) nurse researchers/scholars in the biomedical and behavioral sciences. There is a significant gap between supply and demand, especially with UR scientists. The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) College of Nursing (CON) and its two partners, DePaul University and Purdue University Calumet, have shown proven commitment and success addressing this problem. This proposal builds on an established history of successful initiatives to increase the number of students from UR groups in biomedical and behavioral sciences across curricula and degrees. Since the Bridges to the Doctorate was initially awarded to UIC in 2003, 11 UR students have graduated with a PhD in nursing from UIC and an additional 13 are in PhD coursework or completing dissertations. Nine are in the master's program at partner schools and will apply for admission to our PhD program for fall 2014. Building on our solid 10-year track record, the proposed program will continue to provide UR nursing students the academic preparation/skills to enable them to successfully transfer to and complete a PhD in nursing science. Specific aims: Specific Aim 1. Recruit and enroll 5 UR master's degree nursing students in the UIC Bridges program each year. Specific Aim 2. Provide course work at UIC for Bridges students preparing for admission and matriculation to UIC's PhD program. Specific Aim 3. Provide ongoing mentorship and administrative support for the Bridges students who matriculate into the UIC PhD program in nursing. Specific Aim 4. Strengthen collaborative partnerships for research engagement and mentorship among the three participating institutions. Specific Aim 5. Provide opportunities for UR master's degree nursing students to participate in inter-professional research teams and develop mentor/mentee relationships. Specific Aim 6. Assess the level of psychological capital among UR master's degree nursing students at partner schools. Also, provide workshops and seminars to increase psychological capital among UR master's degree nursing students and decrease barriers to pursuing doctoral education. Five UR master's students (DePaul: three; Purdue: two) will be recruited per year. Eleven faculty researchers will serve as Bridges Faculty Preceptors/Mentors with faculty members at partner schools. PhD students will receive financial support during the first 2 years of full-time study through traineeships, scholarships, or research assistantships with stipends. Bridges PhD graduates will help to decrease the significant gap between supply of and demand for a diverse scientific workforce.

描述（由申请人提供）：该研究教育计划的总体目标是增加生物医学和行为科学领域代表性不足的少数族裔 (UR) 护士研究人员/学者的数量。供需之间存在巨大差距，尤其是对于UR科学家而言。伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校 (UIC) 护理学院 (CON) 及其两个合作伙伴德保罗大学和普渡大学 Calumet 已经在解决这一问题方面表现出了坚定的承诺并取得了成功。该提案建立在一系列成功举措的基础上，这些举措旨在增加 UR 团体在生物医学和行为科学领域跨课程和学位的学生数量。自 2003 年 UIC 首次获得“通往博士学位桥梁”项目以来，已有 11 名 UR 学生从 UIC 毕业并获得护理博士学位，另有 13 名学生正在攻读博士学位课程或完成论文。九名学生在合作学校攻读硕士课程，并将申请 2014 年秋季攻读我们的博士课程。基于我们 10 年扎实的记录，拟议的课程将继续为 UR 护理学生提供学术准备/技能，使他们能够成功转学到并完成护理科学博士学位。具体目标： 具体目标 1. 每年招收 5 名 UR 硕士护理专业学生参加 UIC Bridges 项目。具体目标 2. 为准备进入 UIC 博士课程的 Bridges 学生提供 UIC 的课程作业。具体目标 3. 为进入 UIC 护理博士课程的 Bridges 学生提供持续的指导和行政支持。具体目标 4. 加强三个参与机构之间研究参与和指导的合作伙伴关系。具体目标 5. 为 UR 硕士学位护理学生提供参与跨专业研究团队并发展导师/受训者关系的机会。具体目标 6. 评估合作学校的 UR 硕士学位护理学生的心理资本水平。此外，还提供讲习班和研讨会，以增加UR硕士学位护理学生的心理资本，并减少攻读博士学位的障碍。每年招收 5 名 UR 硕士生（德保罗：3 名；普渡大学：2 名）。十一名教员研究人员将与合作学校的教员一起担任 Bridges 教员导师/导师。博士生将在前两年的全日制学习期间通过实习、奖学金或研究获得经济支持 带津贴的助教。布里奇斯博士毕业生将有助于缩小多元化科学劳动力供需之间的巨大差距。
