DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program (PREP) will be created at the University of Michigan to increase the ability of underrepresented minority students to be accepted into excellent doctoral (Ph.D.) programs in the biological and biomedical disciplines throughout the country. The University of Michigan has long had a strong history of encouraging undergraduates toward research careers and in recent years has gained national attention through its commitment to recruiting a diverse and talented student population. In the biosciences, there are extensive research opportunities for undergraduates from UM and elsewhere and strong and coordinated bioscience graduate programs that have been successful and recruiting and graduating a diverse student body. However, in our graduate applications and recruiting travels throughout the country we frequently encounter students who, for a variety of reasons, are not yet quite prepared to matriculate and succeed in strong graduate programs, but could be with specific types of further preparation. The creation of a PREP at Michigan would provide promising students from around the country with the needed preparation to both successfully apply to strong graduate programs and to succeed once they matriculate. The described project speaks directly to the objectives of the PREP program announcement from the NIH. Students from several ethnic and racial backgrounds are severely underrepresented in PhD-level research positions that address issues of human health. The Michigan PREP provides students with opportunities to prepare themselves for graduate school in a wide range of different disciplines in the Schools of Medicine, Public Health, Engineering (Biomedical), Pharmacy, Kinesiology, and Dentistry.

描述（由申请人提供）：将在密歇根大学创建一个博士后研究教育计划（PREP），以提高代表性不足的少数民族学生被优秀博士（博士）录取的能力。在全国各地的生物和生物医学学科的方案。密歇根大学长期以来一直鼓励本科生从事研究工作，近年来通过致力于招募多元化和有才华的学生群体而获得了全国的关注。在生物科学，有来自UM和其他地方的本科生和强大的和协调的生物科学研究生课程，已经成功和招聘和毕业多元化的学生团体广泛的研究机会。然而，在我们的研究生申请和全国各地的招聘旅行，我们经常遇到的学生谁，由于各种原因，还没有完全准备好录取并在强大的研究生课程中取得成功，但可以与特定类型的进一步准备。在密歇根州创建PREP将为来自全国各地的有前途的学生提供所需的准备，以便成功申请强大的研究生课程，并在他们入学后取得成功。 所描述的项目直接说明了NIH宣布的PREP计划的目标。来自几个民族和种族背景的学生在解决人类健康问题的博士水平研究职位中的代表性严重不足。密歇根州PREP为学生提供了机会，让他们为医学，公共卫生，工程（生物医学），药学，运动机能学和牙科学院的各种不同学科的研究生院做好准备。
