Project Summary/Abstract There is an urgent need to increase the numbers and diversity of prepared graduates joining the biomedical workforce through systematic and impactful evidence-based approaches that follow scientific practices. Florida International University's Project iCREATE (investigating Career & Research Experience Access Through Evidence) will address the lack of diversity in biomedical careers by designing, implementing and testing innovative interventions; as well as investigating the effect of high-impact practices (e.g., different research experience formats and career development opportunities) on students' career goals, career strategies, and key student career intent and action outcomes. FIU is an urban Hispanic-serving research-intensive (R1) public institution with over 58,000 students, 80% of which are from groups that are underrepresented in the biomedical workforce. iCREATE centers on generating evidence for two scalable interventions that will leverage FIU's extensive expertise in student success, diversity, equity, and inclusion and focus on programming that transforms students' access to biomedical research experiences and career awareness and preparation. iCREATE aims to 1) develop and implement the following interventions: Careers+, a workshop for students focused on career development strategies and biomedical career awareness, and CURE+ which expands a one semester CURE into a two-semester advanced course-based research experience; 2) evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed interventions and current research experiences available to select students at our institution; and 3) perform a qualitative longitudinal study of undergraduates’ development of career goals and strategies and the impact of research experiences and career development opportunities on student career goal trajectories. iCREATE will advance our understanding of best-practices in preparing a diverse biomedical workforce by 1) developing and testing evidence-based programs, thus, laying the groundwork for implementing similar efforts in life science curricula to increase minority representation in the biomedical workforce; 2) conducting comparative analyses across research experience formats, and across student demographics, to directly compare the impact of various experiences on student outcomes; 3) focusing on the impact of research experiences and career development opportunities on students from underrepresented backgrounds, an area that is significantly understudied, and 4) following students longitudinally to comprehensively understand how students develop career strategies and factors that trigger the intent and actions to pursue a career in biomedical research.

项目总结/摘要 迫切需要增加准备毕业生加入生物医学的数量和多样性， 通过遵循科学实践的系统性和有效的循证方法来培养劳动力。佛罗里达 国际大学项目iCREATE（调查职业和研究经验获取途径 证据）将通过设计、实施和测试来解决生物医学职业缺乏多样性的问题 创新的干预措施;以及调查高影响力做法的效果（例如，不同的研究 经验形式和职业发展机会）对学生的职业目标，职业战略， 学生的职业意向和行动结果。FIU是一个城市西班牙裔服务的研究密集型（R1）公共 拥有超过58，000名学生的机构，其中80%来自生物医学领域代表性不足的群体 劳动力iCREATE的核心是为两项可扩展的干预措施生成证据， 在学生的成功，多样性，公平和包容性方面拥有广泛的专业知识，并专注于改变 学生获得生物医学研究经验和职业意识和准备。iCREATE旨在 1)制定和实施以下干预措施：职业+，为学生举办的侧重于职业的讲习班 发展战略和生物医学职业意识，以及CURE+，它扩展了一个学期的CURE 进入两个学期的先进课程为基础的研究经验; 2）评估的有效性，建议 干预措施和目前的研究经验，可选择学生在我们的机构;和3）执行一个 大学生职业目标与策略发展的定性纵向研究 研究经验和职业发展机会对学生的职业目标轨迹。iCREATE将 通过1）发展和 测试基于证据的项目，从而为在生命科学领域实施类似的努力奠定基础 增加少数群体在生物医学劳动力中的代表性的课程; 2）进行比较分析 跨研究经验格式，跨学生人口统计，直接比较各种影响， 研究经验对学生成绩的影响; 3）关注研究经验和职业发展的影响 来自代表性不足背景的学生的机会，这是一个研究严重不足的领域，以及4） 纵向跟踪学生，全面了解学生如何制定职业战略， 触发从事生物医学研究的意图和行动的因素。
