The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) located in Hattiesburg, MS is leading a systematic and data-driven approach to develop a novel model (U-Model) in order to establish a more innovative research culture at USM. This project will help foster greater translational research activities that prepare USM students for non-academic careers, accelerate access to university products and services, and strengthen Mississippi’s entrepreneurial ecosystem. Achieving these goals supports Mississippi’s knowledge-based economy and promotes the comparative advantages of the state’s industries.USM will demonstrate the efficacy of the U-Model for supporting higher translational research activities through the implementation of short-term projects and long-term institutional programs that (1) promote human behaviors to shift research culture, (2) increase capacity to enhance innovation, and (3) create inclusive education and training programs that are engaging to women and minorities. University of Arizona, nationally recognized for its very high translational research activities ecosystem, will serve as USM’s mentor institution. Also, Jackson State University, a fellow Mississippi Research Consortium member, will assist USM with the development of inclusive education and training programs.This project is jointly funded by the Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) Directorate, the Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR), the IUSE program in the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) and the NSF Research Traineeship (NRT) programs in the EDU Directorate, as well as ENG, SBE, and MPS Directorates.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

位于密西西比州哈蒂斯堡的南密西西比大学（USM）正在领导一种系统和数据驱动的方法来开发一种新的模型（U-Model），以在USM建立更具创新性的研究文化。该项目将有助于促进更大的转化研究活动，为USM学生的非学术职业做好准备，加快获得大学产品和服务，并加强密西西比的创业生态系统。实现这些目标支持密西西比的知识经济，促进该州产业的比较优势。USM将通过实施短期项目和长期机构计划，（1）促进人类行为转变研究文化，（2）提高创新能力，以及（3）创建包容性教育和培训计划，让妇女和少数民族参与其中。亚利桑那大学，全国公认的非常高的转化研究活动生态系统，将作为USM的导师机构。此外，密西西比研究联盟成员之一的杰克逊州立大学将协助USM发展全纳教育和培训项目。该项目由技术、创新和伙伴关系（TIP）理事会、刺激竞争研究的既定计划（EPSCoR）、本科教育部的IUSE计划（DUE）和教育部的NSF研究培训（NRT）计划，以及ENG，SBE，该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
