SCORE Program at Hunter College

描述（由申请人提供）：纽约城市大学亨特学院是一个大型的，城市的，多元化的校园，其中超过50%的少数民族学生。亨特分数项目支持文理学院49个研究实验室中的26个的研究，2002年，35名博士后、145名博士生和110名本科生的研究成果发表了145篇同行评议论文。自2000年获得资助以来，SCORE已经实现了大部分可衡量的目标，包括出版物增加25%，博士后增加78%，本科研究人员增加50%，博士生增加75%，其中包括来自代表性不足的少数民族的本科生和博士生的数量和百分比增加。此外，我们超额完成了4项新的主要独立研究资金来源的目标：SCORE教师获得了7个新奖项和7个续签，其中包括两名初级教师获得的NSF职业奖，其中一名是前MARC学生。这些成果来自直接的研究支持，研究研讨会计划的支持，以及两项主要活动的机构：小型SCORE指导/兴趣小组会议，称为科学研究兴趣小组（srig），以及包括研讨会和内部和外部评论和提案编辑在内的资助活动。在下一个资助期，我们寻求将这些成功扩展到更多的亨特研究人员。我们要求支持17个完整提案和3个试点提案，主要来自新教师和副教授。6个项目是新项目，另外3个项目来自获得三年或更短时间SCORE资助的教师。Hunter SCORE计划将支持这些实验室的研究，以及扩大资助培训、研讨会支持、SRIG会议和促进青年教师参加科学会议和合作者的旅行。评价活动以内部数据收集、由杰出科学家组成的外部咨询委员会的年度评价和评价调查为基础。这些活动将导致实现下列目标：将SCORE参与者审阅的出版物数量增加三分之一；2. SCORE实验室的博士后人数进一步增加50%；3. SCORE参与者中有6项新资助和6项续期；4. SCORE实验室博士生人数增加50%；和5。在学院和其他项目的支持下，聘请了4名新的研究活跃的少数民族教师。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Hunter College of the City University of New York is a large, urban, diverse campus with over 50% minority students. The Hunter SCORE program supports research in 26 of the 49 research labs in the School of Arts and Sciences, which in 2002 published 145 peer-reviewed papers based on research of 35 post-docs, 145 PhD students, and 110 undergraduates. Funded since 2000, SCORE has achieved most of its measurable objectives including a 25% increase in publications, a 78% increase in post-docs, a 50% increase in undergraduate researchers, and an unanticipated 75% increase in doctoral students, including increased number and percentage of undergraduates and PhD students from under-represented minorities. In addition, we exceeded our objective of 4 new sources of major independent research funding: SCORE faculty garnered 7 new awards and 7 renewals so far, including NSF Career Awards to two junior faculty, one a former MARC student. These outcomes result from direct research support, support of research seminar programs, and institution of two major activities: meetings of small SCORE mentoring/interest groups called Scientific Research Interest Groups (SRIGs), and grantsmanship activities including workshops and internal and external critiquing and editing of proposals. In the next funding period we seek to extend these successes to additional Hunter research faculty. We ask support for17 full and 3 Pilot proposals, mostly from new faculty and Associate Professors. Six projects are new and three more are from faculty with three years or less of SCORE funding. The Hunter SCORE program will support research in these labs, as well as expanded grantsmanship training, seminar support, SRIG meetings, and facilitation of junior faculty travel to scientific meetings and to collaborators. Evaluation activities are based on internal data collection, annual assessments by an External Advisory Committee of distinguished scientists, and evaluation surveys. These activities will lead to achievement of the following objectives: 1. increase by one third the number of refereed publications by SCORE participants; 2. a further 50% increase in the number of post-docs in SCORE labs; 3. six new grants and six renewals among SCORE participants; 4. a 50% increase in the number of doctoral students in SCORE labs; and 5. with the support of the College and other programs, hiring of 4 new research active minority faculty.
