9450319 Wyche Brown University proposes to expand its Summer Research-Early Identification Program (SR-EIP) in the biomedical sciences to a year-round research and career oriented experience for highly motivated Brown underrepresented minority students in the life sciences and engineering. The program, Research Careers for Minority Scholars (RCMS) at Brown University, will involve talented students from the freshman through senior year and expand the career options for those students during the four-year period of the proposal. Students will be matched with faculty sponsors who will provide mentorship, guidance, and a first-rate research environment starting in the freshman year. During the summer following the freshman year, students will participated in a nine- week program comprising a continuation of the research experience, seminars and field trips, weekly research colloquia by Brown faculty and outside speakers, and visits to industrial companies. During the junior and senior year, students will be encouraged to apply to Brown's Ph.D. programs and to other highly selected graduate schools. One measure of the RCMS experience's success at Brown will be the number of recruits to graduate degree programs. The program's goal will be to produce a minimum of 15 pre-doctoral candidates by the year 2000.

9450319威奇布朗大学提议将其生物医学科学的夏季研究-早期识别项目（SR-EIP）扩展为一项面向生命科学和工程领域高度积极的布朗大学少数族裔学生的全年研究和职业导向体验。布朗大学这个名为“少数族裔学者研究职业”（RCMS）的项目将招收从大一到大四的优秀学生，并在提案实施的四年期间为这些学生扩大职业选择。学生将与教师赞助人匹配，他们将从大一开始提供指导、指导和一流的研究环境。在大一之后的夏天，学生们将参加一个为期九周的项目，包括继续研究经验、研讨会和实地考察、布朗大学教师和外部演讲者每周的研究座谈会，以及参观工业公司。在大三和大四，学生将被鼓励申请布朗大学的博士课程和其他高级研究生院。衡量布朗大学RCMS经验成功与否的一个标准将是研究生学位项目招收的人数。该计划的目标是到2000年培养至少15名博士预科候选人。
