项目摘要
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal will establish a partnership between several departments at the University of Texas at Brownsville (UTB) and the University of Utah (U of U) Department of Biomedical Informatics (BMI) in the School of Medicine. The partnership would be a perfect fit under the "Bridges to the Doctorate for Underrepresented Students" because UTB is an institution granting terminal Master's degrees that has a high percentage of minority students. The U of U Department of BMI is underrepresentative of U.S. minority students and grants PhD degrees in the field of Biomedical Informatics. This partnership will help to establish a path for UTB students to move toward a doctoral degree in one of the most competitive and best known doctoral programs in Biomedical Informatics.
Biomedical Informatics is a relatively new field of study, but it is growing very rapidly. It is now viewed as essential, not only to the delivery of high quality healthcare but also to the advancement of all the biomedical sciences. Although most students and many faculty members at institutions of higher learning are still unfamiliar with the field of Biomedical Informatics, it offers many challenges for research, creativity and career opportunities for individuals at the doctoral level. Biomedical Informatics is interdisciplinary, thus requiring that successful students come to the discipline with a broad base of basic courses. Such coursework includes statistics, computer science, molecular biology and genetics, as well as social and behavioral sciences. The education program proposed here will establish the groundwork to prepare students from an institution with a large percentage of underrepresented minorities for admission to and successful completion of a doctoral program in a vital, fast-paced and still-emerging discipline.
The proposed bridging partnership will: 1) Provide an interactive Masters Program between UTB and the U of U which would adequately prepare minority students having an interest in the field of biomedical informatics for acceptance to the U of U BMI PhD program; 2) Provide mechanisms for acceptance and funding by the U of U BMI Department for bridging students who satisfy the PhD entrance requirements; 3) Closely monitor student progress and provide remedial activities as needed to promote their success in the program; 4) Provide an effective and measurable means of evaluating the success of the program.
This proposal will establish an educational partnership between the University of Texas at Brownsville and the University of Utah Department of Biomedical Informatics as part of the Bridge to the Doctorate program. This proposal will educate U.S. underrepresented minorities in the field of Biomedical Informatics. One of the tracks of the doctoral program is in Public Health Informatics, in conjunction with the CDC-funded Center of Excellence in Public Health Informatics. The potential is to educate individuals who can assist in research and administration related to many aspects of Public Health.
描述(由申请人提供):本提案将在德克萨斯大学布朗斯维尔分校(UTB)和犹他州大学(U of U)医学院生物医学信息学系(BMI)的几个系之间建立合作关系。这种伙伴关系将是一个完美的适合下“桥梁博士学位的代表性不足的学生”,因为UTB是一个机构授予终端硕士学位,有很高的比例少数民族学生。BMI的U是美国少数民族学生的代表性不足,并赠款生物医学信息学领域的博士学位。这种伙伴关系将有助于为UTB学生建立一条道路,在生物医学信息学最具竞争力和最知名的博士课程之一中获得博士学位。
生物医学信息学是一个相对较新的研究领域,但它正在迅速发展。它现在被认为是必不可少的,不仅是提供高质量的医疗保健,而且是所有生物医学科学的进步。虽然大多数学生和高等院校的许多教职员工仍然不熟悉生物医学信息学领域,但它为博士水平的个人提供了许多研究,创造力和职业机会的挑战。生物医学信息学是跨学科的,因此需要成功的学生来与基础课程的广泛基础的学科。这些课程包括统计学、计算机科学、分子生物学和遗传学,以及社会和行为科学。这里提出的教育计划将建立基础,为来自一个代表性不足的少数民族比例很大的机构的学生做好准备,以便在一个重要的,快节奏的和仍然新兴的学科中入学并成功完成博士课程。
拟议的桥接伙伴关系将:1)提供UTB和U之间的互动硕士课程,这将充分准备少数民族学生有兴趣在生物医学信息学领域接受到U BMI博士课程的U; 2)由U BMI部门为满足博士入学要求的桥接学生提供接受和资助机制; 3)密切监测学生的进步,并提供必要的补救活动,以促进他们在计划中的成功; 4)提供评估计划成功的有效和可衡量的手段。
该提案将在德克萨斯大学布朗斯维尔分校和犹他州大学生物医学信息学系之间建立教育伙伴关系,作为博士学位桥梁计划的一部分。该提案将教育美国在生物医学信息学领域代表性不足的少数民族。博士课程的轨道之一是在公共卫生信息学,与卓越的公共卫生信息学CDC资助的中心一起。潜在的是教育个人谁可以协助有关公共卫生的许多方面的研究和管理。
