DESCRIPTION (from application): The overall aim of this project is to strengthen PU research and training on aging and life course inequality. While the University has a long history of research and instruction in gerontology, it has only recently developed an institutional structure to support interdisciplinary inquiry on aging for faculty and graduate students. This project is designed to build upon the recent institutional development by focusing research on life course analysis, especially inequality and cumulative disadvantage across the life course. This application is designed to enhance social and behavioral expertise on aging along two developmental loci. The first is to provide research development opportunities for faculty in the social and behavioral sciences. The second focus is graduate education. The project seeks to strengthen interdisciplinary initiatives in gerontology related to the professional and methodological training of graduate students. Specific aims of this project include: (1) To stimulate research on life course inequality by PU faculty and graduate students; (2) to enhance graduate education in social gerontology by further integrating theories and methods for the study of the life course; (3) to provide opportunities for faculty to participate in an interdisciplinary research program on life course inequality; and (4) to contribute to the scientific understanding of the antecedents and consequences of inequality across the life course. Specific mechanisms to achieve the research and training initiatives include the: formation of research clusters, pilot grant program, scientific advisory board review, symposium series, participation in summer intensive courses, minority student recruitment, and interdisciplinary educational opportunities for graduate students. The success of the program will be measured by multiple performance indicators such as refereed journal articles, extramural research funding, curriculum development, interdisciplinary doctoral committees, and placement of graduate students.

描述（来自应用程序）：本项目的总体目标是 * 加强关于老龄化和生命历程不平等问题的方案干事研究和培训。 虽然大学有着悠久的研究和教学历史， 老年学，它只是最近才发展出一种体制结构， 支持教师和研究生关于老龄化的跨学科研究。 该项目的目的是在最近体制发展的基础上， 重点研究生命过程分析，特别是不平等和 在整个生命过程中累积的不利因素。 此应用程序旨在提高社会和行为的专业知识， 沿着两个发育位点衰老。 一是提供调研 为社会和行为科学教师提供发展机会。 第二个重点是研究生教育。 该项目旨在加强 老年学方面的跨学科倡议， 研究生的方法论培训。 该项目的具体目标包括：（1）促进生命研究 研究生与教师的课程不平等;（2）提高研究生 加强社会老年学理论与方法的整合 为生命历程的研究;（3）为教师提供机会， 参与生命历程的跨学科研究项目 （4）有助于科学地理解不平等。 生命历程中不平等的前因和后果。 实现研究和培训倡议的具体机制包括 研究集群的形成，试点赠款计划，科学咨询 委员会审查、专题讨论会系列、参加夏季强化课程、 少数民族学生招生和跨学科教育机会 为研究生准备的。 该计划的成功将通过以下方面来衡量： 多个绩效指标，如参考期刊文章，校外 研究经费，课程开发，跨学科博士 委员会，并安置研究生。
