University of Chicago Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) - Renewal 01

项目总结 芝加哥大学最大限度地促进学生发展倡议(IMSD)旨在 为团体中新录取的博士研究生提供研究培训和教育机会 在生物医学和行为科学领域的代表性不足(UR)，以及将受益的非UR学生 来自IMSD的机遇。该计划将重点放在干预和发展活动上，以匹配 学生个体及其所处阶段的背景准备、研究经历和学习风格 在研究生院的进步。学生在暑期学期毕业时加入国际管理学院 学习，完成个人发展计划(IDP)，作为每个学生的路线图 结束他们在UChicago IMSD的任期，并参加一个有助于他们融入社会的“新兵训练营” 进入研究生课程，为加州大学芝加哥分校严格的研究生教育做好准备。通航 通过轮换和课程作业，以及发展沟通和应对技能将得到促进 通过互动学习模块(ILM)，并辅之以同行和教员指导。来自 该课程提供研究生一年级和二年级的课程。学生仍将是国际管理学院会员 在完成博士学位的同时，受益于旨在磨练科学技能的ILM， 增强领导技能，发展专业技能和网络技能，并探索职业选择。尽管 计划将是高度结构化和逻辑组织，它也将是可定制的，根据每个 学生的需求。与此同时，教职员工将积极参与提高他们的指导技能，而所有 利益相关者共同努力，建立一个更加多样化的学者社区。国际管理学院的最终成功 该计划将通过完成学生的博士课程来衡量，他们的长期成功为 生物医学科学家，以及随着时间的推移，生物医学研究社区的多样性增加。

PROJECT SUMMARY The University of Chicago (UChicago) Initiative for Maximizing Student Development (IMSD) is designed to provide research training and educational opportunities for newly admitted PhD graduate students from groups underrepresented (UR) in the biomedical and behavioral sciences and for non-UR students who would benefit from IMSD opportunities. The Program is tiered to focus intervention and developmental activities to match the background preparation, research experience, and learning styles of individual students as well as their stage of progression in graduate school. Students join the IMSD in the Summer term at the point of entry to graduate studies, complete an Individual Development Plan (IDP) that will serve as the roadmap for each student's course over their tenure in the UChicago IMSD, and participate in a “boot camp” that will help integrate them into the Graduate Programs and prepare them for the rigors of a UChicago graduate education. Navigation through rotations and coursework, as well as developing communication and coping skills will be facilitated through Interactive Learning Modules (ILMs) and augmented by peer and faculty mentoring. Support from the Program is provided for years one and two of graduate school. Students will remain members of the IMSD program while advancing to completion of the PhD, benefitting from ILMs designed to hone scientific skills, enhance leadership skills, develop professional and networking skills and explore career options. Although the Program will be highly structured and logically organized, it also will be customizable depending on each student's needs. Concomitantly, faculty will be actively engaged to improve their mentoring skills, while all stakeholders work together toward a more diverse community of scholars. The ultimate success of the IMSD Program will be measured by completion of the students' PhD programs, their long-term success as biomedical scientists, and an increase in the diversity of the biomedical research community over time.
