DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The CSUSM MARC-U*STAR Program will increase the pool of underrepresented racial and ethnic minority students who pursue research careers in the biomedical sciences. Our Primary Measurable Objective is to place 100% of our MARC Scholars (MS) into graduate school and monitor/support completion of their Ph.D. Our Program has six goals. The goals include creation of a large pool of MARC Program eligible students through a set of Pre-MARC activities, Enhance Academic Performance, Enhance Scientific Communication Skills, Enhance Computational Skills, Participation in Biomedical Research, and Graduate School Application/Admission/Retention. Six MS will participate in the program. Each year, 3 MS will be juniors selected from the Pre-MARC program, or juniors entering from community colleges, and three will be seniors- all chosen and retained using rigorous standards. MS will participate in a set of activities designed to make them competitive for admission to first-class graduate schools. These activities include participation in a challenging curriculum supported by several academic support services, participation in skills development workshops, research training, research seminars, and supervised original research leading to scientific publications. MS will develop strong skills in critical thinking, problem solving, writing and oral communication, leadership, and teamwork. Finally, MS will participate as a group in a year-long set of activities designed to support completion of their graduate school application and placement in graduate school. Our Evaluation Plan provides measurable objectives and assessment criteria for each project goal using formative and summative evaluation. As of May 2006, 12/16 MS graduates have gone on to graduate school or post-graduate studies for a 75% placement rate (one Ph.D. completed in 2006). In addition, we expect 3 current MS to be admitted to graduate school for fall 2007 making our placement record 16/20 (80%). The MORE MARC Program's goal and the CSUSM strategic plan are in perfect alignment. The regional minority population growth, the campus commitment to diversity, the success of the current MARC Program, the supportive faculty, the experience of the program director, the existing MBRS SCORE, RISE and Bridges Programs, and new science buildings with modern scientific instruments and powerful instructional resources collectively make CSUSM an ideal location to operate a successful MARC Program.

描述（由申请人提供）：CSUSM MARC-U* 星星计划将增加在生物医学科学领域从事研究工作的代表性不足的种族和少数民族学生的人数。我们的主要可衡量目标是将100%的MARC学者（MS）放入研究生院，并监督/支持他们完成博士学位。我们的计划有六个目标。目标包括通过一系列MARC前活动创建大量符合MARC计划条件的学生，提高学术成绩，提高科学沟通技能，提高计算技能，参与生物医学研究，以及研究生院申请/录取/保留。六个MS将参加该计划。每年，3个MS将是从Pre-MARC计划中选出的大三学生，或从社区学院进入的大三学生，三个将是大四学生-所有人都是使用严格的标准选择和保留的。MS将参加一系列旨在使他们有竞争力的一流研究生院录取的活动。这些活动包括参加由几个学术支持服务支持的具有挑战性的课程，参加技能发展讲习班，研究培训，研究研讨会，并监督导致科学出版物的原创研究。MS将培养批判性思维，解决问题，写作和口头沟通，领导力和团队合作方面的强大技能。最后，MS将作为一个团体参加为期一年的活动，旨在支持他们的研究生院申请和安置在研究生院完成。我们的评估计划通过形成性和总结性评估为每个项目目标提供可衡量的目标和评估标准。截至2006年5月，12/16的硕士毕业生进入研究生院或研究生学习，就业率为75%（一名博士）。2006年完成）。此外，我们预计3个目前的MS将被录取到研究生院2007年秋季使我们的安置记录16/20（80%）。MORE MARC计划的目标和CSUSM战略计划完全一致。区域少数民族人口的增长，校园对多样性的承诺，当前MARC计划的成功，支持教师，计划主任的经验，现有的MBRS SCORE，RISE和桥梁计划，以及具有现代科学仪器和强大的教学资源的新科学建筑，共同使CSUSM成为一个成功的MARC计划的理想地点。
