DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Fayetteville State University (FSU) is a public comprehensive regional university and one of the 16 constituent institutions of the University of North Carolina System. A historically black institution with a rich 134-year history of excellence in education, FSU is also one of the most diverse universities in North Carolina and the nation. Recognizing the diversity of our student and faculty populations, we have designed a dynamic, multi-faceted FSU RISE Program with the overarching goal of increasing the number of well-prepared Biology and Chemistry FSU graduates entering graduate programs in the biomedical sciences. To achieve this goal, four objectives have been proposed: Objective 1: To strengthen the academic performance of Biology and Chemistry majors Objective 2: To provide students with meaningful research experiences Objective 3: To enhance the faculty's capability to provide research training Objective 4: To improve the research training environment A series of phased-in activities has been designed for each level in the undergraduate student's training, from the pre-freshman stage, beginning with the "Rising Scholars" pre-freshman summer orientation workshop, through graduation. New students will be added each year as continuing RISE Scholars advance in their programs of study. This timetable provides the opportunity for students to build upon skills developed at each stage of their participation in the FSU RISE Program, while also allowing faculty time to develop themselves to conduct research and to provide research training. Activities designed to meet student development Objectives 1 and 2 include: (1) a scientific communications course, enrichment seminars, academic support, and a GRE course; and (2) a biotechniques workshop, structured extramural and intramural research, and an interdisciplinary research-based course. Research training will be enhanced by instituting faculty development workshops and extramural research experiences (Objective 3), and the research environment at FSU will be improved with a Biomedical Research Colloquium, RISE website, and equipment upgrades (Objective 4). Performance measures and milestones have been developed to ensure that FSU RISE activities are meeting their expected objectives, and a formal evaluation of FSU RISE activities will be undertaken. The expected outcomes of the FSU RISE Program are: (1) at least 6 of the 8 RISE Scholars (75%) entering the program each year will persist in a science major from their initial declaration through graduation; (2) 100% of RISE Scholars completing the program will be accepted into graduate school following graduation from FSU; and 3) beginning with the first graduating class in year 3 of the FSU RISE Program, 6-8 graduates per year will enter a graduate program in the biomedical sciences.

描述（由申请人提供）： 费耶特维尔州立大学 (FSU) 是一所 公立综合性地区大学，16所组成大学之一 北卡罗来纳大学系统的机构。历史上的黑人 FSU 是一所拥有 134 年卓越教育历史的机构 也是北卡罗来纳州和全国最多元化的大学之一。 认识到我们学生和教师群体的多样性，我们 设计了一个动态的、多方面的 FSU RISE 计划，其总体目标是 增加做好充分准备的佛罗里达州立大学生物学和化学专业毕业生的数量 进入生物医学科学研究生课程。为了实现这一目标， 提出了四个目标： 目标 1：加强生物和化学的学术表现 专业 目标 2：为学生提供有意义的研究经历 目标3：提高教师提供研究培训的能力 目标4：改善科研培训环境 每个级别都设计了一系列分阶段的活动 本科生的培养，从大一前阶段开始 “新星学者”大一前夏季迎新研讨会，通过 毕业。每年都会增加新学生作为持续的 RISE 学者 他们的学习计划取得进展。该时间表提供了机会 学生在参与的每个阶段发展技能 FSU RISE 计划，同时也让教师有时间发展自己 进行研究并提供研究培训。活动旨在满足 学生发展目标 1 和 2 包括： (1) 科学传播 课程、强化研讨会、学术支持和 GRE 课程； (2) 一个 生物技术研讨会、结构化的校外和校内研究以及 跨学科研究型课程。研究培训将加强 举办教师发展研讨会和校外研究经验 （目标 3），并且 FSU 的研究环境将得到改善 生物医学研究研讨会、RISE网站和设备升级（目标 4).制定了绩效衡量标准和里程碑，以确保 FSU RISE 活动正在达到预期目标，并进行了正式评估 将开展 FSU RISE 活动。 FSU 的预期成果 RISE 计划包括：(1) 8 名 RISE 学者中至少有 6 名 (75%) 进入 每年的课程都会从最初开始就坚持选择科学专业 毕业宣言； (2) 100%的RISE学者完成了 从佛罗里达州立大学毕业后，该项目将被研究生院录取； 3) 从 FSU RISE 第 3 年的第一届毕业生开始 计划，每年6-8名毕业生将进入生物医学研究生课程 科学。
