DESCRIPTION (provided by the applicant): City College of San Francisco (CCSF) and San Francisco State University (SFSU) propose to continue their successful Baccalaureate Bridge Program. Our multi-component program is designed to increase recruitment, retention, transfer rates, and graduation of underrepresented minority students with baccalaureate degrees in science to prepare them to pursue careers in biomedical research. The primary objectives of our CCSF/SFSU Bridge Program are to: bring the mathematics skills of entering community college students to a level needed for successful completion of Calculus prior to transferring to a 4-year institution; supplement biology, chemistry and math courses at CCSF with academic tutoring designed to improve the performance of underrepresented minority students in these critical gateway courses; provide two different opportunities for summer research experiences for student participants; provide a l link between CCSF and SFSU students and faculty that fosters a career in biomedical research; continue an intense advising, mentoring and monitoring system with appropriate counseling and academic support services for program participants; and improve science and math curriculum at CCSF. CCSF and SFSU Bridges Program faculty have implemented seven activities to accomplish these objectives: Advising and Mentoring Program including Academic Success and Leadership Workshop, Pre-calculus Math Bridge Workshop, NIH Scholars Seminar Series, Academic Tutoring, Science in Action Directed Research, Independent Research Internship, and CCSF Faculty Development. An evaluation component provides an analysis of the impact of the program and its activities. During the current period, 190 underrepresented minority science majors were served. Eighty-four program participants have transferred to SFSU, UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Santa Cruz, UC San Diego UC Los Angeles, CalPolytechnic, San Jose State University, Sacramento State University, Stanford University, Santa Clara University, Howard University, University of Florida and University of British Columbia. Fifty-three students have received BS/BA degrees, 13 students are in graduate or post-baccalaureate programs, 7 students are in medical or dental school, and 11 students are employed in the biomedical/biotechnology field.

描述（由申请人提供）：弗朗西斯科城市学院（CCSF）和弗朗西斯科州立大学（SFSU）建议继续他们成功的学士学位桥梁计划。我们的多组成部分计划旨在提高招聘，保留，转移率，并与科学学士学位的代表性不足的少数民族学生毕业，让他们准备从事生物医学研究的职业。我们的CCSF/SFSU桥梁计划的主要目标是：使进入社区大学的学生的数学技能达到成功完成微积分所需的水平，然后再转入4年制大学;补充CCSF的生物，化学和数学课程，提供学术辅导，旨在提高这些关键门户课程中代表性不足的少数民族学生的表现;为学生参与者提供两种不同的夏季研究经验的机会;在CCSF和SFSU学生和教师之间提供一个联系，促进生物医学研究的职业生涯;继续为计划参与者提供适当的咨询和学术支持服务，以强烈的建议，指导和监控系统;并改善CCSF的科学和数学课程。CCSF和SFSU桥梁计划教师已经实施了七项活动来实现这些目标：咨询和指导计划，包括学术成功和领导力研讨会，预微积分数学桥研讨会，NIH学者研讨会系列，学术辅导，科学行动指导研究，独立研究实习，和CCSF教师发展。评价部分分析方案及其活动的影响。 在本报告所述期间，为190名任职人数不足的少数族裔理科专业学生提供了服务。84名计划参与者已转移到SFSU，UC Berkeley，UC Davis，UC圣克鲁斯，UC San Diego UC洛杉矶，CalPolytechnic，圣何塞州立大学，萨克拉门托州立大学，斯坦福大学University，Santa Clara University，霍华德University，佛罗里达大学和不列颠哥伦比亚省大学。53名学生获得了学士/学士学位，13名学生在研究生或学士后课程，7名学生在医学或牙科学校，11名学生在生物医学/生物技术领域就业。
