DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of California, Berkeley, in partnership with Chabot College and Merritt College, seeks to increase substantially the number of community college students from the targeted populations who transfer into and successfully complete biomedical and behavioral science degree programs at four-year institutions. The three-tiered strategy seeks to 1) strengthen the transfer culture at the colleges and increase awareness of biomedical and behavioral science career opportunities; 2) nurture a cohort of students who aspire to transfer into these fields; and 3) identify fifteen outstanding students each year to participate in a rigorous program of study and faculty-mentored research at Berkeley. A team of distinguished scientists, experienced transfer preparation professionals, outstanding graduate researchers, and talented undergraduates will design and implement curriculum, support strategies, and structured research experiences for the Bridges students. The goal is to increase by 100% the overall number of students from the targeted population who transfer from the partner institutions into the specified majors; to increase the transfer rate of Bridges students to 75% and to increase the graduation rate of Bridges students who transfer to 75%. Ultimately, the aim is to significantly increase the pool of well-trained minority biomedical and behavioral scientists.

描述（由申请人提供）：加利福尼亚大学伯克利分校与Chabot College和Merritt College合作，试图大大增加目标人群的社区大学生数量，这些人数转移到四年制机构中并成功完成生物医学和行为科学课程。三层战略试图1）加强大学的转移文化，并提高对生物医学和行为科学职业机会的认识； 2）培养渴望转移到这些领域的学生组； 3）每年确定15名杰出学生，参加伯克利的严格研究和教职员工研究计划。由杰出科学家组成的团队，经验丰富的转学准备专业人员，杰出的研究生研究人员和才华横溢的本科生将为桥梁学生设计和实施课程，支持策略和结构化研究经验。目的是将从合作伙伴机构转移到指定专业的目标人群的总数增加100％；将桥梁学生的转移率提高到75％，并提高转移到75％的桥梁学生的毕业率。最终，目的是显着增加训练有素的少数族裔生物医学和行为科学家的库。
