The need to educate, train, and cultivate scholars from backgrounds traditionally underrepresented in science and engineering in the United States for the next revolution in biomedical knowledge is well-established. To enhance diversity in biomedical workforce, Georgia Tech (GT) ESTEEMED is an integrated plan and pipeline to prepare underrepresented students for a Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. in a STEM field with emphasis on biomedical engineering, then to excel as a biomedical researcher. We will provide tools to overcome these obstacles and set a foundation to achieve through to Ph.D. completion. Aim 1. Infuse scientific inquiry and research mindset early. GT ESTEEMED scholars will be submerged early and often with positive research experiences, peer-to-peer mentoring, and goal-driven cohorts, to build supportive networks with Ph.D. and research career goals. Aim 2: Eradicate perceived barriers between students and professors by facilitating multiple faculty- scholar interactions in one-on-one and small group settings to promote discussions, career advice, and establishment of strong relationships. Aim 3: Train GT ESTEEMED scholars in exploration of difficult, open- ended, multi-disciplinary problems and communications of those results. Important skillset for success in a research career. We will lay this foundation with these initiatives: 1) Challenge, a summer bridge program prior to freshman year teaching scholars computer science, chemistry, and calculus in a residential program. 2) Pre-Challenge early summer program exclusively for ESTEEMED scholar team-building, networking with research active professors, and immersion in problem-based learning research experiences. 3) Academic year activities will include check-in sessions, integration into research lab groups, an ESTEEMED scholar led journal club, blogging experiences, and other professional development activities. 4) Summer research experience in Georgia Tech's Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE), a program with 75% success rate of attending graduate school. 5) Junior year advancement into LSAMP Research Track and Petit Undergraduate Research Scholars Advanced Honors Programs that provide continued professional development and stipends for continued research engagement. Georgia Tech is uniquely suited to run this program and prepare ESTEEMED scholars to obtain Ph.D.'s. The biomedical engineering department is ranked #1 for undergraduates (2017 U.S. News & World Report), and GT has a strong record for increasing diversity and broadening participation being #2 in graduating African-Americans and Hispanic-American students with bachelor's engineering degrees and #1 for these underrepresented groups with graduate engineering degrees. Team of investigators are a tenured African-American male (Platt), a tenure-track quadriplegic assistant professor (Mitchell), and Assistant Dean of Engineering for Educational Innovation (Newstetter). Their complementary experience, networks, and expertise have prepared them to meet the goals of recruiting and mentoring underrepresented students and students with disabilities to successful Ph.D. completion and research careers.

需要教育、培训和培养来自传统上在科学领域代表性不足的背景的学者 在美国，生物医学知识的下一次革命的基础和工程学是建立良好的。到 增强生物医学劳动力的多样性，格鲁吉亚技术（GT）ESTEEMED是一个综合计划和管道， 为博士生做准备。或医学博士/博士在STEM领域，重点是生物医学 然后成为一名出色的生物医学研究员。我们将提供克服这些障碍的工具， 为实现博士学位奠定基础。建成目标1.注入科学探究和研究 心态早。GT受人尊敬的学者将很早就被淹没，而且往往有积极的研究经验， 点对点的指导，和目标驱动的队列，建立支持网络与博士。研究生涯 目标.目标2：通过促进多个教师，消除学生和教授之间的感知障碍。 学者在一对一和小组环境中的互动，以促进讨论，职业建议， 建立牢固的关系。目标3：培养GT受人尊敬的学者，探索困难，开放， 结束，多学科的问题和这些结果的通信。成功的重要技能 研究生涯。我们将通过以下举措奠定这一基础：1）挑战，一个夏桥计划 在大学一年级之前，他在一个住宿项目中教授学者计算机科学、化学和微积分。（二） 挑战前初夏计划专为受人尊敬的学者团队建设，与 研究活跃的教授，并沉浸在基于问题的学习研究经验。3)学年 活动将包括签到会议，融入研究实验室小组，一个受人尊敬的学者领导的杂志 俱乐部，博客体验和其他专业发展活动。4)暑期研究经验 格鲁吉亚理工学院的夏季本科生研究经验（SURE），一个75%的成功率的计划， 读研究生5)大三进入LSAMP研究轨道和小本科 研究学者高级荣誉计划，提供持续的专业发展， 继续从事研究的津贴。格鲁吉亚理工学院是唯一适合运行这个程序，并准备 尊敬的学者获得博士学位。's.生物医学工程系在本科生中排名第一 (2017美国新闻与世界报道），GT在增加多样性和扩大 参与是#2在毕业的非洲裔美国人和西班牙裔美国人的学生与学士学位 工程学位和#1为这些代表性不足的群体与研究生工程学位。团队 调查人员是一名终身非裔美国男性（普拉特），终身跟踪四肢瘫痪助理教授 （米切尔），和教育创新工程助理院长（Newstetter）。其互补 经验、网络和专业知识使他们能够满足招聘和指导的目标 代表性不足的学生和残疾学生到成功的博士学位。完成和研究职业。
