科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）的职业障碍持续存在的个人从边缘化社区由于金融和教育的不平等，无意识的偏见，和其他dismissioning因素。为了评估历史上代表性不足（UR）和代表性良好（WR）群体之间的计划和兴趣差异，我们调查了3000多名就读于化学课程的本科生。调查结果显示，所有的群体都对学习更多的科学研究有着相似的兴趣。在大学的4年里，WR的学生保持了他们的兴趣水平，但UR的学生没有，造成了群体之间的差距越来越大。在没有干预的情况下，UR学生参与实验室研究的比率低于WR学生。一个案例研究试点项目，生物科学合作研究参与（BioCoRE），鼓励来自边缘化社区的本科生STEM研究探索。BioCore提供指导和编程，提高社区凝聚力，培养学生内在的科学思维。我们的数据显示，在对医学专业、研究生院和实验室科学研究的计划进行调查时，BioCoRE WR和UR学生之间没有统计学显著差异。此外，BioCoRE参与者在进行研究时的信心水平高于非BioCoRE学者。我们现在有UR学生进入博士课程在我们机构的历史上最高的年度人数。
Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) career barriers persist for individuals from marginalized communities due to financial and educational inequality, unconscious bias, and other disadvantaging factors. To evaluate differences in plans and interests between historically underrepresented (UR) and well-represented (WR) groups, we surveyed more than 3000 undergraduates enrolled in chemistry courses. Survey responses showed all groups arrived on campus with similar interests in learning more about science research. Over the 4 years of college, WR students maintained their interest levels, but UR students did not, creating a widening gap between the groups. Without intervention, UR students participated in lab research at lower rates than their WR peers. A case study pilot program, Biosciences Collaborative for Research Engagement (BioCoRE), encouraged STEM research exploration by undergraduates from marginalized communities. BioCoRE provided mentoring and programming that increased community cohesion and cultivated students’ intrinsic scientific mindsets. Our data showed that there was no statistical significant difference between BioCoRE WR and UR students when surveyed about plans for a medical profession, graduate school, and laboratory scientific research. In addition, BioCoRE participants reported higher levels of confidence in conducting research than non-BioCoRE Scholars. We now have the highest annual number of UR students moving into PhD programs in our institution’s history.
