Texas Woman's University (TWU) and Tarrant County College (TCC) propose to continue their transition program in biomedical science. The program goal is to assist more individuals from underrepresented minority groups to pursue a baccalaureate degree in mathematics or science so they can eventually obtain a Ph.D. degree and builds a career in biomedical research. The program objectives are: 1) to serve ten TCC students as participants in each of three funding years; 2) to help participants excel in the classroom through individualized tutoring, advising and a student support group; 3) to provide opportunities for participants to learn more about biomedical research by offering seminars, laboratory tours, a summer preparatory course for research, research-related events and access to research faculty as well as peer mentors; 4) to provide opportunities for all participants to obtain experience in research; 5) to provide opportunities for TCC faculty to collaborate with TWU faculty in research and mentoring; 6) to motivate and guide at least 90percent of the participants to transfer to a four-year college/university; 7) to motivate and guide at least 90 percent of those who transfer to a four-year college/university to complete their baccalaureate degree; and 8) to motivate and guide at least 90 percent of former participants who earn their baccalaureate degree to enter graduate programs in biomedical science with plans to pursue a career in biomedical research. Program evaluation and student tracking will be both continuous and comprehensive to ensure that the program is as effective as possible.

德克萨斯女子大学（TWU）和塔兰特县学院（TCC） 建议继续他们在生物医学科学的过渡计划。程序 目标是帮助更多来自代表性不足的少数群体的个人， 攻读数学或科学的学士学位， 获得博士学位学位，并建立了生物医学研究的职业生涯。程序 目标是：1）为10个TCC学生作为参与者在三个 资助年; 2）通过以下方式帮助参与者在课堂上表现出色 个性化辅导，咨询和学生支持小组; 3）提供 为参与者提供更多关于生物医学研究的机会， 提供研讨会、实验室图尔斯参观、夏季研究预备课程， 与研究相关的活动和获得研究人员以及同行导师; 4)为所有参与者提供机会， 研究; 5）为TCC教师提供与TWU合作的机会 研究和指导教师; 6）激励和指导至少90% 的参与者转入四年制学院/大学; 7） 激励和引导至少90%的人谁转移到四年 学院/大学完成他们的学士学位;和8）激励 并指导至少90%的前参与者， 学士学位进入生物医学科学研究生课程， 计划从事生物医学研究。项目评估和学生 跟踪将是持续和全面的，以确保该计划 尽可能有效。
