RISE PROGRAM AT HUNTER COLLEGE

描述(改编自申请)：亨特学院建议继续 传统并扩大其已有17年历史的MBR计划的目标 从本科生和研究生队伍中培养出约30名博士(15名 正在进行中)。提出了三项发展活动：(1)现有的 继续实施本科生和研究生科研培训计划， 扩展和改进。在本科生和研究生水平上都是如此 在全国范围内参与的实验室中提供密集的研究经验 资助的、竞争激烈的、最先进的生物医学科学研究。在 本科阶段，它还包括由教职员工进行密集的指导 和其他浓缩活动，旨在提高科学业绩和 激励和激励学生攻读更高的科学和研究学位 事业。这项活动还包括设立一个中央办公室，以便 亨特学院的少数民族科学项目和对 一个新的本科物理实验室。2)新的发展规划 科学课程和教育技术开发课程将 实施。这将包括建立新的课程、采用 计算机技术在课堂讲课、远程学习和 将万维网纳入课程。3)亨特学院 本科生暑期研究培训计划，提供一个暑期 为非猎人少数民族学生提供研究经验，将得到支持和 扩大了。 这些发展活动的MBR上升目标是增加 进入生物医学研究职业的代表性不足的少数族裔人数(1 和3)加强科学学习和理科专业的数量(两者 少数族裔和多数族裔学生)在亨特学院。一些具体的 该方案的目标在评估计划中有详细说明。最多的 重要的包括增加本科生进入博士项目的机会 在科学界的代表性不足31%到50%(从1.7%到2.7% 每年)，并增加授予学生的博士学位数量 亨特研究生课程在科学方面的代表性不足25%(来自 每年0.82至1.0名学生)(活动1)。理科专业的学生数量 亨特学院将在四年内增加20%，从1192所增加到 1430名学生(活动2)。

DESCRIPTION (Adapted from Application): Hunter College proposes to continue the traditions and expand the objectives of its 17-year-old MBRS program which has produced approximately 30 Ph.D.s from its undergraduate and graduate ranks (15 are in progress). Three developmental activities are proposed: (1) The existing undergraduate and graduate student research training program will be continued, expanded, and improved. At both the undergraduate and graduate student level it provides an intensive research experience in a lab engaged in nationally funded, competitive, state-of-the-art biomedical science research. At the undergraduate level it also involves intensive mentoring by a faculty member and other enrichment activities intended to enhance scientific performance and to inspire and motive students to seek advanced degrees in science and research careers. This activity also includes establishment of a centralized Office for Minority Programs in science at Hunter College and support for construction of a new undergraduate physics laboratory. 2) A program for development of new courses in the sciences and for instructional technology development will be implemented. This will include establishment of new courses, adoption of computer technologies in classroom lectures, distance learning, and incorporation of the World Wide Web into curricula. 3) The Hunter College Undergraduate Student Summer Research Training Program, which provides a summer research experience for non-Hunter minority students, will be supported and expanded. The MBRS RISE goals of these developmental activities are to increase the number of underrepresented minorities entering biomedical research careers (1 and 3) and to enhance science learning and the number of science majors (both minority and majority students) at Hunter College. A number of specific objectives of this program are detailed in the evaluation plan. The most important include increasing entrance into Ph.D. programs of undergraduates who are underrepresented in science from 31 percent to 50 percent (from 1.7 to 2.7 students per year) and increasing the number of Ph.D.s awarded to students underrepresented in science in Hunter graduate programs by 25 percent (from 0.82 to 1.0 students per year) (activity 1). The number of science majors at Hunter College will be increased by 20 percent in four years, from 1,192 to 1,430 students (activity 2).
