"Bridges to the Baccalaureate Research Training Program at LaGuardia Community College"

项目概要/摘要 拉瓜迪亚社区学院的“通向学士学位研究培训计划的桥梁”， 证明了我们的学生的高毕业率和高转移率， 证明社区学院可以带头管理一个成功的桥梁 程序.我们的计划已经形成了一个财团与三个特殊的四年制学院- 纽约城市学院、亨特学院和皇后学院-提供具有挑战性的研究 在生物医学和行为科学的经验，为我们的代表性不足的大学生： 妇女、少数民族、残疾人和经济上处于不利地位的人。 拉瓜迪亚大学计划每年安排10名学生参与实践和指导研究 的补助期。这些学生将从一系列研究项目中进行选择， 在拉瓜迪亚大学的指导下， 研究导师。这些经验将在夏季得到利用， 学生们在我们的三个链接学院，布鲁克海文， 国家实验室和纽约州立大学医学中心。 桥梁计划还包括一些旨在支持学生的活动： 每月研究学生研讨会，辅导，转让咨询，机会，提出他们的 在地方和国家会议的研究成果，在负责任的行为的指示， 研究，严谨性和再现性，生物统计学，领导力和 自我管理技能，生物仪器，研究论文评论，图书馆研究，研究 设计，数据科学，Python介绍，海报演示和ePortfolio的使用。 Bridges学生将使用ePortfolio收集他们的学术工作，进度报告 并反思他们的学习和职业目标。该计划还将为拉瓜迪亚大学的教师提供 有机会参加威斯康星州大学提供的有效指导研讨会 和桥梁的学生也将参加国家研究指导网络（NRMN）。 每月的研究研讨会是值得注意的，因为他们的特点是进度报告和正式的最后 学生自己的报告，纽约市立大学教师和外部演讲者的演讲， 来自该计划的转让顾问的信息，关于开发和交付的会议 使用PowerPoint进行专业演示，以及校友返校日， 校友返回与当前的桥梁学生分享他们的成功和研究。桥梁 学生还将使用myIDP（个人发展计划）的改编版本来探索 生物医学、科学和生物工程方面的职业。

Project Summary/Abstract LaGuardia Community College’s “Bridges to the Baccalaureate Research Training Program” has demonstrated high graduation and high transfer rates for our students, conclusively demonstrating that a community college can take the lead in administering a successful Bridges program. Our program has formed a consortium with three exceptional four-year colleges—the City College of New York, Hunter College, and Queens College—to provide challenging research experiences in the biomedical and behavioral sciences for our underrepresented college students: women, minorities, the disabled, and those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. LaGuardia proposes to place 10 students in hands-on, mentored research experiences each year of the grant period. These students will choose from a list of research projects and will be engaged in preliminary, preparatory research at LaGuardia, under the tutelage of the LaGuardia Faculty Research Mentors. This experience gained will then be utilized during the summer, as the Bridges students become involved in more intensive research at our three linking colleges, Brookhaven National Laboratories, and SUNY downstate Medical Center. The Bridges program also features a number of activities designed to support the students: monthly research student seminars, tutoring, transfer counseling, opportunities to present their research results at local and national conferences, instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research, Rigor and Reproducibility, instructional workshops on bio-statistics, leadership and self-management skills, bioinstrumentation, research paper critique, library research, research design, data science, introduction to Python, and poster presentation and the use of ePortfolios. The ePortfolio will be used by Bridges students to collect their academic work, progress report and to reflect on their learning and career goals. The program will also offer LaGuardia faculty the opportunity to participate in effective mentoring workshop offered at the university of Wisconsin and Bridges students will also enroll in the National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN). The monthly research seminars are notable in that they feature progress reports and formal final reports by the students themselves, presentations by CUNY faculty and outside speakers, information from the program’s transfer counselor, a session on developing and delivering professional presentations using PowerPoint, and an Alumni Homecoming Day where Bridges alumni return to share their successes and research with current Bridges students. Bridges students will also use an adapted version of myIDP (Individual Development Plan) to explore careers in biomedical, sciences, and bioengineering.
