PROJECT SUMMARY As a young, rapidly growing campus in North San Diego County, California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) is well-positioned to prepare motivated students from underrepresented (UR) groups for graduate studies and research careers. A large proportion of CSUSM students is Hispanic (47%), which exceeds the non-Hispanic White population (27%). The campus is a Hispanic Serving Institution (HSI). In addition, 54% are from families in which they will be the first to complete a college degree and 52% are Pell Grant recipients. Thus, CSUSM is home to a rapidly growing diverse student body, many of whom are low income and/or the first in their family to attend college. The Bridges to the Doctorate Research Training Program at CSU San Marcos with UCSD and TSRI (B2PhD) has been specifically developed to meet the needs of the student population at CSUSM. The program will use evidence-based practices to achieve the following 8 objectives: 1) prepare, recruit and select scholars who show significant promise for success, 2) enhance quantitative and methodological skills, 3) enhance scientific communication skills, 4) engage students in meaningful biomedical research that results in thesis and publication(s), 5) develop knowledge, skills and persistence necessary to succeedin a doctoral program and beyond, 6) expose students to a culturally validated pedagogy to increase belonging and persistence, 7) to prepare competitive applications for graduate school, and 8) reduce time to degree in both Master’s and PhD settings. The program is two years in length. We propose to engage 8 master’s students in year 1 of the program, and 16 in years 2-5. Our major goals, informed by past success rates, are for 90% of CSUSM B2PhD Scholars to graduate with their master’s degree and 70% to enter PhD programs. Taken as a whole, the B2PhD Program, in concert with a highly supportive campus environment, will prepare students from UR groups to be thoughtful scientists who have the knowledge, skills, research experience and character that prepare them for doctoral studies in the biomedical and behavioral sciences and that allow them to become future leaders in science and academia. By doing this we will help advance the goals of the National Institutes of Health to diversify the research workforce. A more diverse research workforce will better address the research needs of a diverse nation and thereby contribute to better health for all.

项目概要 作为加利福尼亚州北圣地亚哥县的一个年轻且快速发展的校园 圣马科斯大学 (CSUSM) 处于有利地位，可以为来自以下领域的积极进取的学生做好准备： 研究生学习和研究职业中代表性不足（UR）群体。一个大 CSUSM 学生中西班牙裔的比例 (47%)，超过非西班牙裔白人 人口（27%）。该校园是一个西班牙裔服务机构（HSI）。此外，54% 来自将成为第一个完成大学学位的家庭，52% 佩尔助学金获得者。因此，CSUSM 拥有快速增长的多元化学生群体， 其中许多人是低收入者和/或家里第一个上大学的人。 科罗拉多州立大学圣马科斯分校通往博士研究培训计划的桥梁 UCSD 和 TSRI（B2PhD）是专门为满足以下需求而开发的： CSUSM 的学生人数。该计划将使用基于证据的实践来实现 以下 8 个目标： 1) 准备、招募和选拔表现出显著成就的学者 成功的承诺，2) 增强定量和方法论技能，3) 增强 科学沟通技巧，4）让学生参与有意义的生物医学研究 产生论文和出版物，5) 发展知识、技能和毅力 成功完成博士课程及其他课程所必需的，6）让学生接触 经文化验证的教学法，以增加归属感和毅力，7) 做好准备 研究生院的竞争性申请，以及 8) 减少获得学位的时间 硕士、博士设置。该计划为期两年。我们建议聘请 8 该项目第一年有 16 名硕士生，第二年至第五年有 16 名硕士生。 根据过去的成功率，我们的主要目标是针对 90% 的 CSUSM B2PhD 学者 获得硕士学位，70% 进入博士课程。整体来看， B2PhD 计划与高度支持的校园环境相结合，将为 UR小组的学生成为有知识、技能、研究、有思想的科学家 为他们在生物医学和生物医学领域攻读博士学位做好准备的经验和性格 行为科学，使他们成为科学和学术界未来的领导者。经过 这样做，我们将帮助推进美国国立卫生研究院的目标，使医疗机构多样化 研究人员。更加多元化的研究队伍将更好地满足研究需求 一个多元化的国家，从而为所有人的健康做出贡献。
