Minority Student Research Experiences (Engineering)

这个俄克拉荷马大学工程学院的项目包括三个独立但相关的组成部分，涵盖了学生为了了解研究职业的价值和回报所需要的发展和经验的全部范围。这三个组成部分包括：1)针对少数民族高中毕业生的暑期学术丰富计划，2)基于大学的研究经验，以及3)基于工业的研究经验。夏季学术充实计划侧重于学术发展和研究事业的介绍。该计划的总体目标是通过让参与者参加六小时的大学学分，包括英语和数学课程，帮助学生实现他们的学术潜力。参与者每天还参与写作和数学实验室，以及学术指导和个人发展研讨会。该项目的第二和第三部分包括为大学和工业界的参与者提供研究机会。该项目考虑了灵活性。一些参与者可能只参与其中一个或两个组件。然而，我们的目标是培养那些经历了这三个部分的学生。这个项目应该培养出一批有才华的少数民族学生，他们受到训练和激励，继续从事研究和研究生学习的机会。

This University of Oklahoma College of Engineering project involves three separate but related components covering the total spectrum of development and experience that a student needs in order to understand the value and rewards of a career in research. The three components include a 1) Summer Academic Enrichment Program for minority high school graduates, 2) a university based research experience, and 3) an industrial based research experience. The Summer Academic Enrichment Program focuses on academic development and introduction to research careers. The overall goal for this program is to assist the students in achieving their academic potential by having the participants enroll in six hours of college credit including English and mathematics courses. The participants also are involved in writing and math labs each day plus Academic Orientation and Person Development Workshops. The second and third components of the project include research opportunities for participants in both the university and in industry. The project allows for flexibility. Some participants may participate in only one or two of the components. However, the goal is to produce students who have gone through all three components. This project should produce a group of talented minority students trained and motivated to continue in research and graduate school opportunities.
