项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Chicago (UC) Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) is designed to provide research training and educational opportunities for newly admitted PhD graduate students from groups underrepresented (UR) in the biomedical and behavioral sciences and for non-UR students who would benefit from IMSD opportunities. The Program is tiered to focus intervention and developmental activities to match the background preparation, research experience, and learning styles of individual students as well as their stage of progression in graduate school. Students will join the IMSD in the Summer term at the point of entry to graduate studies, complete an Individual Development Plan (IDP) that will serve as the roadmap for each student's course over their tenure in the University of Chicago IMSD, and participate in a boot camp that will prepare them for the rigors of a UC graduate education. Navigation through rotations and coursework, as well as developing communication and coping skills will be facilitated through Interactive Learning Modules (ILMs) and augmented by peer and faculty mentoring. Support from the Program is provided for years one and two of graduate school. Students will remain members of the IMSD program while advancing to completion of the PhD, benefitting from ILMs designed to hone scientific skills, enhance leadership skills, develop professional and networking skills and explore career options. Although the Program will be highly structured and logically organized, it also will be customizable depending on each student's needs. Concomitantly, faculty will be actively engaged to improve their mentoring skills, while all stakeholders work together toward a more diverse community of scholars. The ultimate success of the IMSD Program will be measured by completion of the students' PhD programs, their long-term success as biomedical scientists, and an increase in the diversity of the biomedical research community over time.

描述（由适用提供）：芝加哥大学（UC）最大化学生发展（IMSD）的倡议旨在为来自代表性和行为科学不足的小组的新入学的博士学位研究生提供研究培训和教育机会。该计划分为重点，以关注干预和发展活动，以匹配个人学生的背景准备，研究经验和学习风格，以及研究生院的进步阶段。学生将在夏季学期加入IMSD，并在入学处进入研究生学习，完成一个个人发展计划（IDP），该计划将作为每个学生在芝加哥IMSD大学任职期间的路线图，并参加新兵训练营，这将使他们为UC研究生教育的严格性做好准备。通过轮换和课程进行导航，以及发展沟通和应对技巧，将通过交互式学习模块（ILM）进行准备，并通过同伴和教师指导进行增强。该计划的支持是研究生院的第一年和两年。学生将成为IMSD计划的成员，同时又可以完成博士学位，从而受益于ILM，旨在磨练科学技能，增强领导能力，发展专业和网络技能并探索职业选择。尽管该程序将是高度结构化的，并且在逻辑上组织起来，但根据每个学生的需求，它也可以自定义。同时，教师将积极参与提高他们的心理技能，而所有利益相关者都将共同努力，共同致力于多样化的学者社区。 IMSD计划的最终成功将通过完成学生的博士学位课程，其长期作为生物医学科学家的成功以及随着时间的推移生物医学研究界的多样性的增加来衡量。
