DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The United States is rapidly becoming a more diverse nation; non-white racial and ethnic groups will constitute a majority of the American population by 2010. Efforts to increase the diversity of health professionals are imperative to achieve improved access to care for racial and ethnic minority patients, greater patient choice and satisfaction, and better educational experiences for health professions students. The need to increase the numbers of professional nurses who have the knowledge base, cultural sensitivity and research skills to provide solutions to the persistent health disparities that are plaguing this nation is urgent. This background is the foundation for this project that aims to prepare minority researchers and scholars through initiatives that emphasize cognitive skills development and role socialization. The "Initiative for Minority Students: Bridges to the Doctorate" is a collaborative effort of the nursing programs at Thomas Jefferson University and the University of Pennsylvania, combines the strengths of a highly focused, research-intensive school with the strengths of an academic unit that enjoys an established reputation for success in transitioning minority nurses into advanced nursing education programs. An academic component provides the knowledge base for statistical competence and transition to doctoral study while an experiential component allows students to participate in research projects currently being conducted by nursing faculty at the University Of Pennsylvania. Students will work with researchers and develop a research proposal suitable for the preparation of an application for an individual traineeship award from NIH. The project infrastructure will emphasize mentoring and provide the requisite resources to insure the readiness of project participants for matriculation in a doctoral nursing program. An advisory committee will guide the evolution of activities designed to insure the success of this project. Plans for comprehensive evaluation and for dissemination of project outcomes to communities of interest have been established.

美国正在迅速成为一个更加多样化的国家;到2010年，非白人种族和族裔群体将占美国人口的大多数。努力增加卫生专业人员的多样性，对于改善种族和少数民族患者获得护理的机会，增加患者的选择和满意度，以及为卫生专业学生提供更好的教育体验至关重要。迫切需要增加具有知识基础、文化敏感性和研究技能的专业护士的数量，以解决困扰这个国家的持续健康差距。这一背景是该项目的基础，该项目旨在通过强调认知技能发展和角色社会化的举措为少数民族研究人员和学者做好准备。“少数民族学生的倡议：桥梁博士学位”是在托马斯杰斐逊大学和宾夕法尼亚大学的护理课程的合作努力，结合了高度集中，研究密集型学校的优势与学术单位的优势，享有成功过渡少数民族护士进入高级护理教育课程的声誉。学术部分提供了统计能力和过渡到博士研究的知识基础，而经验部分允许学生参与目前正在由宾夕法尼亚大学护理学院进行的研究项目。学生将与研究人员合作，并制定适合于申请NIH个人实习奖的研究提案。该项目的基础设施将强调指导，并提供必要的资源，以确保项目参与者的准备入学博士护理计划。一个咨询委员会将指导旨在确保该项目成功的活动的发展。已经制定了全面评价和向有关社区传播项目成果的计划。
