朱利安学者:招募、保留和支持当地第一代本科科学家项目为24名印第安纳州中西部的第一代学生提供德堡大学奖学金,这些学生主修以下学科之一:生物学、化学、生物化学、计算机科学、地球科学、数学或物理学。朱利安学者项目:1;为印第安纳州历史上与大学联系最紧密的地区提供服务,为合格的学生提供优秀的科学教育,否则他们可能没有这样的机会。为城乡学生提供了一种通过互动来拓展学术和社会观点的机制。通过选择居住在德堡附近的学生,保持学生的保留水平并建立招生率。通过从印第安纳州21世纪学者计划中选择尽可能多的学生来加强招生。朱利安学者项目利用了德堡大学优秀的第一代学生保留率、第一年研讨会和咨询项目、科学研究研究员项目、女性参与科学项目,以及为学生提供可选研究和实习经验的忠诚教师。朱利安学者参与了以下项目:科学之桥(B2S)项目,这是一个建立并成功的暑期合作科学研究项目,将高中生和他们的老师与大学生和他们的教授联系起来;科学讲故事(S4S)项目,它将科学描述为可访问的、动态的和协作的,强化了朱利安学者的B2S科学方法,并激励他们坚持到毕业。朱利安学者项目的招生和留校计划包括:——建立蓝图,支持有风险的、农村和市中心的第一代大学生;——建立城乡学生相互支持、增加多样性的模式;——开发新的学生资源,帮助加强印第安纳州居民和未来劳动力的教育;——利用成功的印第安纳州21世纪学者项目,增加STEM学位项目中代表性不足群体的入学率;——强调研究是科学事业的动力,是大学的方向,是自信和社区的建设者;-通过利用成功的科学研究研究员计划的组成部分,创造更高水平的跨学科对话;-为成人就业准备一个多元化的人口,否则将没有机会参加德堡大学;产生额外的证据来支持朱利安学者项目的行动理论。
英文摘要
The Julian Scholars: Recruiting, Retaining and Supporting Local, First-Generation Undergraduate Scientists project provides DePauw University scholarships for twenty-four, first-generation students in west-central Indiana who major in one of the following disciplines: Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Computer Science, Geosciences, Mathematics or Physics. The Julian Scholars project:1. Serves the region of the State of Indiana most historically linked to the University, by offering an excellent education in the sciences to qualified students who might otherwise not have such an opportunity.2. Provides urban and rural students a mechanism for widening their academic and social viewpoints through interactions with each other.3. Maintains retention levels and builds recruitment rates by selecting students who reside geographically near DePauw.4. Enhances recruitment by selecting as many students as possible from Indiana's 21st Century Scholars Program.The Julian Scholars project capitalizes on DePauw University's excellent retention rates for first-generation students, the First-Year Seminar and Advising program, the Science Research Fellows program, the Women in Science program, and committed faculty members who offer students optional research and internship experiences. Julian Scholars participate in the following: the Bridge to Science (B2S) program, an established and successful summer collaborative science research project linking high school students and their teachers with college students and their professors, and Storytelling for Science (S4S) programming, which describes science as accessible, dynamic and collaborative, reinforcing the B2S approach to science for Julian Scholars and motivating them to persist to graduation. Recruitment and Retention Plans for the Julian Scholars project include: -- Establishing blueprints for supporting at-risk, rural and inner-city first-generation college populations; -- Developing a prototype for using urban and rural students to support each other and to increase diversity;-- Tapping a new pool of students who can help strengthen the education of Indiana's residents and future workforce; -- Leveraging the successful Indiana 21st Century Scholars program to increase enrollments of underrepresented groups in STEM degree programs; -- Highlighting research as a motivator for careers in science, an orientation to the university and a confidence and community builder; -- Creating an increased level of cross-disciplinary conversation by leveraging components of the successful Science Research Fellows Program; -- Preparing a diverse population for adult employment that would otherwise not have the opportunity to attend DePauw University; and-- Generating additional evidence to support the theory of action which undergirds the Julian Scholars project.
