Lehman on the RISE

项目总结/摘要 雷曼学院是纽约市立大学在布朗克斯唯一的高级学院，是文化和 自治市的教育中心。该学院为布朗克斯社区服务， 50%的学生住在布朗克斯，30%的人口住在 在邻近的曼哈顿或韦斯特切斯特县。所服务的人口 雷曼兄弟大多数是女性（72%），来自科学领域代表性不足的群体 (85%).该提案支持雷曼学院新校长的愿景， 雷曼学院是布朗克斯有抱负的年轻人的转型代理人。因此，长期以来， 这一提议的长期目标是确保雷曼兄弟的本科生， 特别是理科学生人数不足和/或来自低收入家庭的学生， 能够显著参与研究企业，并得到良好的指导， 准备充分，寻求研究生学习和追求成功的职业生涯， 生物医学研究领域。 为了实现我们的目标，我们提出了一个计划，结合学术支持， 为我们潜在的RISE学生（具体目标1）提供培训和指导 在研究和非认知技能为我们的上升学者（具体目标2）。 本提案的目的是为本科生提供一个程序， 将学术支持与研究和非研究领域的培训和指导相结合， 认知技能，这将确保录取和成功的博士学位。节目 生物医学科学 我们这个项目的理由是，在完成拟议的培训，学生 将获得所需的技术和职业建设技能，要么完成 博士在生物医学科学或追求成功的职业生涯领域， 生物医学研究 这一目标将通过以下具体目标实现： 1)为入门科学学生提供课程支持和研究接触， 培养大量有潜力的RISE学生。 2)选择10名RISE学者，每年5名，并为他们提供一套优秀的 研究经验和支持网络，以确保100%的毕业生与 生物学或化学学士或学士学位，攻读生物医学高级学位 研究，并在他们的研究生教育取得成功。 此外，我们将进行一项全面的评估计划，该计划将嵌入到 在专业评估人员的指导下，对项目的文化进行评估。 !

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Lehman College, the only CUNY senior College in the Bronx, is the cultural and educational center of the borough. The College serves the Bronx community with over 50% of the student population residing in the Bronx and 30% of the population residing in the adjacent borough of Manhattan or Westchester County. The population served by Lehman is mostly female (72%) and from groups underrepresented in the sciences (85%). The proposal supports the vision of Lehman College’s new President to make Lehman College the agent of transformation for aspiring Bronx youth. Thus, the long- term goals of this proposal are to ensure that Lehman’s undergraduate population, particularly students underrepresented in science and/or from low-income households, are able to participate significantly in the research enterprise and are well-mentored and well-prepared to seek post-graduate study and pursue successful careers in the biomedical research fields. In order to achieve our goals, we propose a program that combines academic support for our potential RISE students (Specific Aim 1) with a mixture of training and mentoring in both research and non-cognitive skills for our RISE Scholars (Specific Aim 2). The objective of this proposal is to provide undergraduate students a program that combines academic support with training and mentoring in both research and non- cognitive skills that will ensure admission to and success in Ph.D. programs in the biomedical sciences. Our rationale for this project is, that upon completion of the proposed training, students will have acquired the technical and career-building skills required to either complete a Ph.D. in the biomedical sciences or to pursue successful careers in the field of biomedical research. This objective will be realized through the following Specific Aims: 1) Provide course support and research exposure to introductory science students to build a large pool of potential RISE students. 2) Select 10 RISE scholars, 5 per year, and provide them with a set of outstanding research experiences and a support network to ensure that 100% graduate with a BA or BS in either Biology or Chemistry, pursue an advanced degree in biomedical research, and succeed in their post-graduate education. In addition, we will conduct a thorough evaluation program that is imbedded into the culture of the program under the guidance of a professional evaluator. !
