SPECIFIC AIMS The BRIDGE to the BS Program at Morgan State University (MSU) is a collaboration between Morgan State University and Prince Georges Community College (PGCC). The long-term goal of this program is to increase the numbers of underrepresented minorities who successfully complete the transition from PGCC to completion of the Baccalaureate degree in psychology and STEM majors at MSU and who are then able to successfully compete for positions in graduate or professional programs or gain entry in the workforce in areas related to biomedical or behavioral sciences. The program, which will engage students from the start of their first year in community college, utilizes a “wrap around” approach that offers continuous intensive, individualized support and attention through the senior year at MSU. The goals center around three major strategies: 1) pre-program initiatives to nurture a culture of research at PGCC and increase awareness of undergraduate research and academic opportunities at MSU; 2) academic support that will foster successful transition to MSU and persistence to completion of the baccalaureate degree; and 3) mentoring initiatives (personal and professional) that continue throughout the academic career. Thus the “wrap around” approach encompasses activities before, during, and after completion of the program. At the end of the funding period, we will have trained and graduated 30 MSU BRIDGE scholars. We anticipate a much broader impact beyond just the BRIDGE scholars that transfer to MSU given that some of the program activities at each institution are open to all students. All students at PGCC within relevant majors will be encourages to participate in Pre- BRIDGE activities. All transfer students at MSU within the psychology and STEM majors will be strongly encouraged to participate in the MSU BRIDGE activities so that they will also persist towards completion of their degree. To this end, we propose the following Goals and Objectives: GOAL 1. To strengthen the transfer student pipeline between PGCC and MSU for students who are interested in completing a baccalaureate degree in the STEM or psychology disciplines, with particular focus on career goals in biomedical or behavioral sciences. GOAL 2. Create and facilitate transfer student academic success and persistence to completion of the baccalaureate degree in STEM at MSU. GOAL 3. Nurture a culture of research and academic achievement that will facilitate completion of the baccalaureate degree and subsequent careers in the biomedical or behavioral sciences.

具体目标 摩根州立大学 (MSU) 的 BS 桥梁课程是摩根州立大学与摩根州立大学之间的合作项目 大学和乔治王子社区学院 (PGCC) 该项目的长期目标是增加。 成功完成从 PGCC 过渡到的少数族裔人数 在 MSU 完成心理学和 STEM 专业学士学位，然后能够 成功竞争研究生或专业课程的职位或进入劳动力市场 该项目将从一开始就吸引学生。 在社区大学的第一年，他们采用“环绕式”方法，提供持续的强化、 密歇根州立大学高年级的个性化支持和关注主要围绕三个目标。 策略：1) 计划前的举措，以培养 PGCC 的研究文化并提高对研究的认识 密歇根州立大学的本科研究和学术机会；2) 促进成功的学术支持； 过渡到密歇根州立大学并坚持完成学士学位；3) 指导计划； （个人和专业）贯穿整个学术生涯，因此是“环绕”方法。 包括项目完成之前、期间和之后的活动， 我们将培训并毕业 30 名 MSU BRIDGE 学者，我们预计会产生更广泛的影响。 鉴于每个机构的一些项目活动，只有转学到密歇根州立大学的 BRIDGE 学者 向所有学生开放 PGCC 相关专业的所有学生都将被鼓励参加预科课程。 BRIDGE 活动。 MSU 心理学和 STEM 专业的所有转学生都将受到强烈关注。 鼓励参加 MSU BRIDGE 活动，以便他们也能坚持完成 为此，我们提出以下目标： 目标 1. 加强转移。 PGCC 和 MSU 之间的学生管道，适合有兴趣完成学士学位的学生 STEM 或心理学学科学位，特别关注生物医学或心理学领域的职业目标 目标 2. 创造并促进转学生的学业成功和坚持 在密歇根州立大学完成 STEM 学士学位。 目标 3. 培育研究和文化。 学术成就将有助于完成学士学位和随后的职业生涯 生物医学或行为科学。
