The Research Careers for Minority Scholars (RCMS) program is designed to complement SUNY/College at Old Westbury's college life science oriented programs, Minority Biomedical Research Support (MBRS), Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) and Minority Institute of Research Development Programs (MIRDP), by providing comprehensive research and academic enrichment opportunities directed towards physical science, mathematics and engineering (SEM) fields. The College at Old Westbury is particularly suited for this RCMS program because it has one of the highest percentages of minority students in al the SUNY institutions, and has emerged as a first-rate institution for undergraduate research in the biomedical sciences. Through its Science Training and Education Program, and educational pipeline from secondary school to college has been established. This three year proposal will provide thirty five student with (1) a residential summer program for talented entering freshman to gain and early debut into college (2) special academic and career faculty mentoring; (3) summer internship in nearby industries such as Grumman Aerospace, H2M laboratories and Knogo Corporation; and (4) pre-internship training program preparing students for this industrial experience; (5) research opportunities with faculty mentors in chemistry, applied mathematics and computer science. By concentrating on NSF-supported areas of SEM, the RCMS Program will complete the science education for minority students at the college.

少数民族学者研究生涯(RCMS)计划旨在通过提供针对物理科学、数学和工程(SEM)领域的综合研究和学术充实机会，来补充纽约州立大学/老韦斯特伯里大学面向生命科学的计划、少数民族生物医学研究支持(MBR)、少数民族获得研究职业(MARC)和少数民族研究发展计划(MIRDP)。老韦斯特伯里学院特别适合这个RCMS项目，因为它在纽约州立大学的所有院校中拥有最高比例的少数族裔学生，并已成为生物医学科学本科生研究的一流机构。通过其科学培训和教育方案，已经建立了从中学到大学的教育渠道。这项为期三年的计划将为35名学生提供(1)为有才华的新生提供的住宿暑期计划，以获得并早日进入大学；(2)特别的学术和职业指导；(3)在附近行业的暑期实习，如格鲁曼航空航天公司、H_2M实验室和诺戈公司；(4)实习前培训计划，为学生准备这种行业经验；(5)向化学、应用数学和计算机科学的教师导师提供研究机会。通过集中在NSF支持的扫描电子显微镜领域，RCMS计划将完成对学院少数民族学生的科学教育。
